$=
The total cost for the two tires was $35.00 x 2 = $70.00
Emma sold the two tires for $65.00 x 2 = $130.00
Profit from selling the two tires = $130.00 - $70.00 = $60.00
The total cost for the three rims was $75.00 x 3 = $225.00
Emma sold the three rims for $136.00 x 3 = $408.00
Profit from selling the three rims = $408.00 - $225.00 = $183.00
The total cost for the five headlight covers was $4.00 x 5 = $20.00
Emma sold the five headlight covers for $15.00 x 5 = $75.00
Profit from selling the five headlight covers = $75.00 - $20.00 = $55.00
Total profit = $60.00 + $183.00 + $55.00 = $298.00
Emma's total profit is $298.00.
