Answer: 2,350 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 1 ton=2000 pounds
Thus, Maximum allowable weight = 2.25 tons
[tex]=2.25\times2000\ pounds\\=4,500\ pounds[/tex]
Weight of Jason's truck=2,150 pounds
Therefore, the additional weigh can he carry
=Maximum allowance-weight of truck
[tex]=4,500-2,150=2,350\ pounds[/tex]
⇒The additional weigh can he carry=[tex]2,350\ pounds[/tex]
