To find the weight of the dump truck with 15,300 pounds of trash added, we need to add the two weights together. The weight of the dump truck is 2.8×10^5 pounds, and we add 15,300 pounds of trash.
2.8×10^5 + 15,300 = 4.13×10^5 pounds
Therefore, the weight of the dump truck with the trash added is 4.13×10^5 pounds.
