Answer:

$14,720

Step-by-step explanation:

Farmer grows 128 red tomato plants and 102 yellow tomato plants.

Each plant produces about 32 tomatoes.

If the farmer plans to sell each tomato for 2 dollars.

The estimate for the total amount of money she would earn if she sells all the tomatoes

= 2(128 × 32) + 2(102 × 32)

= 2(4096) + 2(3264)

= 8192 + 6528

= $14720

She would earn $14,720 if she sells all of the tomatoes.
