Answer 1

Haddies Profit = 12s - 25

Explanation:

Given:

Booth charge at fair = $25

Price for each knit scarves = $12

Let the number of scarf sold be s

Hence to calculate the profit we will multiply Price for each knit scarves with number of scarf sold and then with subtract booth charge

Hence profit for selling scarves = Price for each knit scarves × number of scarf sold - Booth charge at fair

Hence the expression is given as;

Profit for selling scarves = 12s -25
