You set this up but then don't use it.
Also your problem statement said *some* items were
taxable, implying some were not. You might want to
record whether an item is taxable in the dictionary too.
print cart
apple = 2
cart = {"apple":2.00, "orange":2.50, "banana":1.75}
print cart
apple = 2
orange = 2.5
banana = 1.75
totalprice = 0
totalprice = apple + orange + banana
print "your subtotal is 'totalprice'"
taxedprice = (totalprice *.07) + totalprice

Show us your solution and perhaps we can help you make it a tad more
efficient.

We will help for free if you show us what you have done and ask
specific questions. We won't do your homework for you.

Why not post where you are stuck or what you are trying to understand?
and we'll give you help and direction. What we cannot do is solve your
homework for you.

Not directly. Your homework is really your own to do. Please try to
avoid the temptation of just posting a homework question here and hoping
that someone will do the work for you.

I agree; the problem here, I think, is that these homework questions often
focus WAY too much on Python-specific features, rather than on fundamental
issues, and so the questions end up feel
Why are these homework programming challenges so
recognisable? It boils down to:
Write a function that that uses X and Y techniques.
The function may be hard and challenging to write but
doesn't ever do anything interesting or anything that
is useful and complete on its own.
