Answer:

Mr. Bonilla paid $5.76 for the pears and apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pears cost $0.92 per pound and apples cost $1.10 per pound.

Mr. Bonilla bought 3.75 pound of pears and 2.1 pounds of apples.

Cost of pears = $0.92\times3.75=3.45$ dollars

Cost of apples = $1.10\times2.1=2.31$ dollars

Total cost of both = $3.45+2.31=5.76$ dollars

Therefore, Mr. Bonilla paid $5.76 for the pears and apples.
