    Actual cost of the TV = $175.95

    Percentage of discount given on the TV = 20%

    Then

    Amount of discount on the TV = (20/100) * 175.95 dollars

    = 175.95/5 dollars

    = 35.19 dollars

    So cost of the TV after discount = (175.95 - 35.19) dollars

    = 140.76 dollars

    Now

    Percentage of sales tax that needs to be added = 6%

    Then

    Amount of sales tax that needs to be added = (6/100) * 140.76 dollars

    = 844.56/100 dollars

    = 8.45 dollars

    Then

    Price of TV after adding sales tax = (140.76 + 8.45) dollars

    = 149.21 dollars

    So the cost of the TV after deducting the discount and adding the sales tax is $149.21
