1. How much profit would the restaurant make by selling 100 burritos?

Answer: The restaurant would make $550

2. How much money would the restaurant take in by selling 100 burritos

Answer: The restaurant would take in $800

Explanation:

First we have to add all the negatives.

-1.50 + -1.00

= -2.50

Now that we have that, we just need to multiply both the 8 dollars and the -2.50 by 100.

8 * 100 = 800

-2.50 * 100 = -250

Now we have the answer for the second question.

The restaurant would take in $800 before the cost of the ingredients.

But now we need to find the profit. (Which is the amount of money they made minus the cost of the ingredients and meat)

800 - 250 = 550

So the restaurant will make $550 in profit.

Hope this helped! :D
