Question

Monty is working on a formula to determine the amount of profit (P) he will make when he sells his pottery. He has already spent $50 on materials and plans to sell each pot for $5. If x represents the number of pots he sells, which formula represents Monty's profit from his sales?

Answer 1

P=5x-50

Explanation:

Profit is represented by P.

$5 is what Monty plans to sell each pot for and x represents how many pots he sells.

therefore 5x-50=P
