Answer 2

Sierra's profit was $41.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sierra realized she lost two-third of a dollar each hour when the shop was closed.

The expression that models this situation is, $P = 45 - \frac{2}{3}h$ ............. (1)

Now, we have to calculate Sierra's profit if the shop was closed for 6 hours.

So, putting h = 6 hours in the equation (1) we get,

$P = 45 - \frac{2}{3}\times 6 = 41$ dollars.

So, Sierra's profit was $41. (Answer)
