Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Nelson grows tomatoes and sells them at a nearby farmers roadside stand.

Let x = number of tomatoes sold

Let m = amount of money made for selling x tomatoes.

He sells them for $2.50 each. This means that he sells x tomatoes for 2.5×x = $2.5x

The farmer charges him $15 a day to use the stand. This means that he pays a constant amount of $15 each day.

Amount of money that Nelson will make will be total amount made in selling x tomatoes minus the constant amount being paid for rent. It becomes

m = 2.5x - 15 This is the general form. In the factored form, it will be

m = 2.5(x+6)

Thepotemich [5.8K]

We want to subtract 8x + 3 from -2x+5. We can create an expression to represent this.

-2x + 5 - (8x + 3).


After this, lets distribute the - sign (think of this like expanding something with -1).

-2x + 5 - 8x - 3


Lastly, we just need to combine like terms.

-2x + 5 - 8x - 3


Combine the 5 and -3 to get 2.

-2x + 2 - 8x


Combine the -2x and -8x to get -10x.

-10x + 2


The final answer to the question is therefore A.
