1) 2.3 x 1000
2) 2.3 x 10^3
3) Both reveal the same answer of 2,300 and are equal. Only displayed differently
1) (12p-3)(12p-3)
=144p^2-36p+36p+9
=144p^2+9 (-36+36=0 so it cancels out)
You can’t really find the sum unless there is number to plug in for the variables.
Profit = (selling price x number of units) - expenses in this case, the selling price is $855, number of units is 250, and the expenses are $6,780 So, Profit = ($855 x 250) - $6,780 = $206,970 That number times 15% (decimal = 0.15) will be the salary of the CEO So, $206,970 x 0.15 = $31,045.50
