Please help I don't understand ​

Answer 1

Answer:

  £531.52

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the profit in week 1 and information about week 2. We are asked for the difference between week 2 profit and week 1 profit.

__

In week 2, pizza is sold 4 ways. The diagram shows the numbers of pizzas sold each way. The table shows the profit made for each way the pizza was sold. We need to add up the profits from each of the sales to find the profit for week 2.

• 10-inch/normal price: profit = 407×£3.72 = £1514.04
• 10-inch/offer price: profit = 358×(-£0.49) = -£175.42
• 12-inch/normal price: profit = 169×£5.26 = £888.94
• 12-inch/offer price: profit = 142×(-£0.04) = -£5.68

Then the total profit in week 2 is ...

  £1514.04 -175.42 +888.94 -5.68 = £2221.88

So, profit in week 2 exceeds profit in week 1 by ...

  £2221.88 -1690.36 = £531.52 . . . more profit in week 2
