Verified Answer :

Answer: 2,350 pounds


Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1 ton=2000 pounds

Thus, Maximum allowable weight = 2.25 tons

\(=2.25\times2000\ pounds\\=4,500\ pounds\)

Weight of Jason's truck=2,150 pounds

Therefore, the additional weigh can he carry

=Maximum allowance-weight of truck

\(=4,500-2,150=2,350\ pounds\)

⇒The additional weigh can he carry=\(2,350\ pounds\)
