Question

Name: Co

Answer 1

Answer:

Thus last month Calvin made $414.90 from all the paintings sold at the art shows.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first analyse the given information in the question:

→ Small paints (lets call them $s$) sell for $25.80 Per Painting, thus:

  $25.80s$ gives as the profit for $s$ number paints sold.

→ Large paints (lets call them $l$) sell for $56.25 Per Painting, thus:

  $56.25l$ gives as the profit for $l$ number paints sold.

We also know last month he sold six large paintings and three small paintings thus from our variables above we can say:

$s=3\\l=6$         Eqn(1).

Thus the total profit of all paintings sold would be:

$PROFIT= 25.80s+56.25l$       which by pluggin in Eqn(1) values gives

$PROFIT=25.80*3+56.25*6\\PROFIT=414.90$

Thus last month Calvin made $414.90 from all the paintings sold at the art shows.
