Why is the answer not 9?
.35(300-200) + .65(160-200)
.35*100 + .65*-40
35+-26= 9

Normally it should be 9, it could be because of the distributive property, making you add 130 and 70 instead of subtract. If thats the case, it would be 175+234, or 409. I still believe it is 9, so it could be an error.
