Question

The total income for the Mr. Jones’s apartment building can be represented by the equation 2R minus C minus 2P, where r is the amount of rent paid by each tenant, C is the cost of the cable bill, P is the cost of the phone bill. If the rent is $700, the cable bill is $100 in the phone bill is $50, what is the total income for Mr. Johnson?

Answer 1

total income= 2R-C-2P

R= omoun tof rent paid by each tenant = $700

C= cable bill = $100

P = Phone bill = $50

Replace the values:

Total income = 2(700)-100-2(50)

total income= 1,400-100-100 = 1,400-200= $1,200

Total income =$1,200
