Answer 1

298

Explanation:

35*2=70 65*2=130 130-70=60

75*3=225 136*3=408 408-225=183

5*4=20 15*5=75 75-20=55

55+60+183=298

Answer 2

The two tires she bought is $35+$35 which then equals to $70. She spent $70 on tires. She then sold them for $65. She bought three rims, each $75... $75+$75+$75 which then equals her $225. And then sold them for $136. She then bought four headlight covers for $4 each... $4+$4+$4+$4, which equals her $16. Then sold them for $15. Her total profit is -$95. How i got that answer you say, well, if you calculate how much she spent on everything in total, she spent -$311 on everything. You then calculate how much she gained by selling everything she had bought, which was a total of $216. Add both of the total prices, -$311+216= you get -$95.
