Answer 1

I think if you do 9.00 + 9.00 to get 18.00 then do 17.00 + 17.00 to get 34.00 then do 41.00 + 41.00 to get 82.00 your answer will be 18.00+34.00+82.00= 134 so that’s your answer. Pls make me the brainliest

Answer 2

Answer:

$237

Step-by-step explanation:

Dana brought two shirts for $5 = 2 × $5 = $10

And sold them at $9 each $9 × 2 = $18

∴ Profit = $18 - $10 = $8

She brought 3 jeans for $ 9 = $9 × 3 = $27

And sold them at $17 each $17 × 3 = $51

∴ Profit = $51 - $27 = $24

Also, She brought 5 dress for $ 29 each = $29 × 5 = $145

And sold them at $41 each $41 × 5 = $205

∴ Total Profit = $8 + $24 + $205 = $237

Hence, Dana Total profit is $237.
