Question

Thomas is in charge of selling roses for the Graduation dance. The roses sell for $3.50 each. He estimates that the expenses of the roses will be $30. Thomas wants to write an equation for the profit.

Answer 1

Answer:

P= $3.5x -$30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of roses Thomas bought and sold be x.

Hence the total selling price would be;

$3.5 × x= $3.5x

The profit = selling price-expenses

P= $3.5x -$30
