Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
This sounds like simple addition & subtraction.
Total revenue = $3,000
Cost of goods = $1,500
Total expenses = $500
Profit = x
x = 3,000 - 1,500 + 500
x = 3,000 - 2000
x = 1,000
Profit for the business is $1,000
256 is the answer. I know this because 128+128 equals 256.
7(3r-1)-(r+5)=-52
21r-7-r-5=-52
21r-r-5-7=-52
20r-12=-52
Add 12 to both sides
20r=-40
Divide by 20
r=-2
