We know for the problem that the performer earned $120 at a performance where 8 people attend. We also know that he u<span>ses 43% of the money earned to pay the costs involved in putting on each performance, so we need to find the 43% of $120. To do that, we are going to divide 43% by 100%, and then multiply it by $120:
</span>
Now we know that the performer uses $51.6 of $120 to pay the costs involved in putting on each performance. The only thing left to find his profits is subtract $51.6 from $120:
We can conclude that the performer makes a profit of $68.4 when 8 people attend his performance.

Carlos made the mistake that he did not combine like terms (3 x and 2 x) properly and did not use addition property of equality.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Carlos did the work as 3 x + 2 x - 6 = 24
We need to find his mistake that he made in above given.
Here, he did not add the like terms (3 x and 2 x)
3 x + 2 x = 5 x
Therefore, his work should be
5 x - 6 = 24
Also, he did not use addition property of equality. It means the equation remains same even though the same number gets added on both sides. It would be
5 x - 6 = 24
+ 6 = + 6
-----------------------
5 x = 30
Dividing 30 by 5, we get answer as '6'. Hence,
= 6
So, stated the above two are the mistakes found in carlos work.
