James started tutoring children several times a week. The first 2 weeks he had to buy tutoring supplies and had losses of $40 an
d $56. The next three weeks he made a profit of $105, $70, and $140. At the end of the 6 weeks, he had a net profit of $252. (a) write an equation to find the profit or loss for the 6th week in this situation. Solve your equation. Was there a profit or a loss for that week? Show your work.
(b) What was James's average profit or loss for the 6 weeks? Show your work. This is on k12, please help me!
So here is how we are going to find the answer. Firstly, we deduct 58 from 76 and we got 18. The decrease is $18. Now, we are going to find out how many percent is 18 of 76. So we divide 18 by 76 multiplied by 100 and we get 23.7%. Hope this answers your question. Have a great day!
