(two candy bars + a soda + plus tax)

Answer 2

$4.94.

Explanation:

We have been given that Kristen bought 2 candy bars for $1.29 each and a soda for $1.98. She had to pay $0.38 in tax.

Kristen's total bill will be cost of 2 candy bars plus cost of one soda plus tax that is:

`\text{Kristen's total bill}=2* \$1.29+\$1.98+\$0.38`

`\text{Kristen's total bill}=\$2.58+\$1.98+\$0.38`

`\text{Kristen's total bill}=\$4.94`

Therefore, Kristen's bill is $4.94.
