Final answer:

Jeremy exchanged his aluminum cans and glass bottles for $1.32.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount Jeremy exchanged for his aluminum cans and glass bottles can be calculated by calculating the cost of the aluminum cans and adding it to the cost of the glass bottles.

The cost of the aluminum cans can be found by multiplying the weight of the aluminum cans (7.5 pounds) by the exchange rate for aluminum cans. Unfortunately, the exchange rate for aluminum cans is not provided in the question, so we cannot calculate the cost of the aluminum cans.

However, we are given that Jeremy exchanged the glass bottles for $1.32. Therefore, the total amount Jeremy exchanged is $1.32.
