Answer 2

If Sierra's ice-cream shop was closed for 6 hours, her profit will be $41.

First, the question gives you the equation 45 - 2/3h, and h mean the number of hour(s), the question is:

what was Sierra's profit if the shop was closed for 6 hours?

So you can plug 6 into the equation,

45 - 2/3(6), -2/3 × 6 = -4

45 - 4 = 41

The answer is $41
