Answer:

The total purchase price is $370.97.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

price of the 35-mm camera, = $259.99

price of the wide-angle lens = $89.99

TAX rate = 6% = 0.06

The total purchase price = 0.06($259.99 + $89.99) + ($259.99 + $89.99)

The total purchase price = $20.99 + 349.98

The total purchase price = $370.97

Therefore, the total purchase price is $370.97.
