Answer 1

Answer:

You will __$5___ earn a profit  just cover your costs  lose money

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

Cost Price of the camera = $50  

Selling price of the camera = $45

We have to find the profit that you will earn.

Since,  $C.P > S.P$ then, you have suffer a loss.

Using formula:

$\text{Loss} = \text{Cost Price} -\text{Selling price}$

Then;

$\text{Loss} = 50-45 = \ 5$

Thus, if you want to cover your costs lose money , then you will earn a profit of $5

Answer 2

You will lose money. Because $50 to make subtract $45 to sell (50-45) leaves you losing $5.
