You can haul 28 bags of cement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Weight limit of truck = 2100 pounds

Weight of each bag of cement = 75 pounds

Let,

x be the number of cement bags that you can haul

Weight of each bag * Number of bags = Weight limit

$75x = 2100$

Dividing both sides by 75

$\frac{75x}{75}= \frac{2100}{75}\\x=28$

You can haul 28 bags of cement.
