<span> well since 0.02 is less it seems to me you have to subtract 0.02 from 1.423
and your answer will be 1.403</span>

The two cases are :
or
- a -4 = 0, that leads to a = 4

The quadratic formula is ![\frac{-b+-\sqrt[2]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B-b%2B-%5Csqrt%5B2%5D%7Bb%5E2-4ac%7D%7D%7B2a%7D)
and in the equation ax^2+bx+c=0
so now all you have to do is substitute the numbers into the quadratic formula
Based on the amount of oranges bought, those sold at a profit and those sold at a loss, the overall profit is 14.2%
<h3>What is the overall profit?</h3>
Assume that the buying price was $1 each.
The amount earned from 60% of them is:
= 60% x 100,000 x 1
= $60,000
The profit from selling 50% of the remaining is:
= (50% x 40,000) x 1.60
= $32,000
The loss from selling the other 50%:
= (50% x 40,000) x 0.90
= $22,222.22
Total selling price:
= 60,000 + 32,000 + 22,222.22
= $114,222.22
Total profit:
= (114,222.22 - 100,000) / 100,000
= 14.2%
