Answer:

Kenny pays $142.24 in total.

Explanation:

In order to find the total amount that Kenny pays, you have to calculate the 9.5% of the price of the drill as this is the sales tax and then, you have to add that amount to the price:

$129.90*9.5%=$12.34

$129.90+$12.34=$142.24

According to this, the answer is that Kenny pays $142.24 in total.
