Answer:

4.28 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Weight of empty car=1.8 tons

Weight of empty truck =[tex]2.1\times 1.8=3.78 tons[/tex]

We have to find weight  of pickup when it carrying 0.5 tons load.

Weight of pickup  when it carrying 0.5 tons load carrying

=Weight of empty pickup truck+ Weight of load

Weight of pickup when it carrying 0.5 tons load

=[tex]3.78+0.5=4.28 tons[/tex]

Hence, the weight of pickup when it carrying 0.5 tons load=4.28 tons
