Answer: 3 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be set up according to slope form: y=mx+b where x represents cost per round.

$70 = $7.51x + $47.47

Subtract 47.47 to both sides: $22.53 = $7.51x

Divide both sides by 7.51: 3 = x

Answer: 70 - 47.47 = 22.53. She spent $22.53. If one pound is $7.51. And she spent $22.53 = 3.

She bought 3 pounds of coffee. Brainliest is always appreciated. :)
