Answer:

188 cents, or 1 dollar and 88 cents ($1.88)

Step-by-step explanation:

We first want to find how many cents per one inch, and we do this by dividing 17 from 68 (68/17). This gets us 4 cents per inch. Now we need to multiply 4 by 47 (4 x 47). Now we get 188 cents. The equation for this would be y = 4x
