Answer:

$4.94.

Step-by-step 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:

[tex]\text{Kristen's total bill}=2\times \$1.29+\$1.98+\$0.38[/tex]

[tex]\text{Kristen's total bill}=\$2.58+\$1.98+\$0.38[/tex]

[tex]\text{Kristen's total bill}=\$4.94[/tex]

Therefore, Kristen's bill is $4.94.
