Eddie has saved up $45 to purchase a new camera from the local store. The sales tax in his county is 7% of the sticker price. Write an equation and solve it to determine the value of the highest priced camera Eddie can purchase with his $45, including the sales tax. Round your answer to the nearest penny.

x - 0.07x = 45; $48.39

0.7x = 45; x = $64.29

7x = 45; x = $6.43

x + 0.07x = 45; x = $42.06
