Haddie makes and sells knit scarves. Next week she will pay a $25 fee for the use of a booth at a craft fair. She will charge $12 for each scarf she sells at the fair. Write an expression to determine Haddie’s profit for selling s scarves after paying the fee for the use of the booth.

• 12s + 25

• 12s - 25

• 12s - 50

• 25s - 12

Answer explanation

Haddie's profit is calculated by taking the total revenue from selling scarves, which is 12s, and subtracting the booth fee of $25. Thus, the expression for her profit is 12s - 25.

The cost to buy p pounds of potatoes at $0.32 per pound and n pounds of onions at $0.48 per pound can be determined by using the expression 0.32p + 0.48n. How much will it cost to buy 4.5 pounds of potatoes and 2.5 pounds of onions?

• $2.64

• $2.00

• $1.80

• $3.20

Answer explanation

To find the total cost, calculate 0.32 * 4.5 + 0.48 * 2.5. This equals 1.44 + 1.20 = 2.64. Therefore, the cost to buy 4.5 pounds of potatoes and 2.5 pounds of onions is $2.64.

Simplify the expression.

-8w + (-4z) + 2 + 6w + 9z - 7

• -2w + 5z - 5

• -6w + 5z - 9

• -2w + 3z - 3

• -8w + 5z + 2

Answer explanation

Combine like terms: -8w + 6w = -2w, -4z + 9z = 5z, and 2 - 7 = -5. Thus, the simplified expression is -2w + 5z - 5, which matches the correct answer choice.

Simplify the expression.

-6 + (-2d) + (-4d) + 3d

• -2d - 6

• 3d - 6

• -3d - 4

• -3d - 6

Answer explanation

Combine like terms: -6 + 3d + (-2d) + (-4d) = -6 + (3d - 2d - 4d) = -6 - 3d. Thus, the simplified expression is -3d - 6, which matches the correct answer.

Expand the expression.

3.5(−3n + 4)

• 3.5n - 14

• −10.5n + 14

• 10.5n - 14

• -3.5n + 4

Answer explanation

To expand 3.5(−3n + 4), distribute 3.5: 3.5 * -3n = -10.5n and 3.5 * 4 = 14. Thus, the expression becomes −10.5n + 14, which matches the correct answer.
