Jose owns 40 shares of stock A whose price increased by $0.75 per share. He also owns 100 shares of stock B whose price decreased by $0.20 per share. What is the total change in the value of Paul’s stock (A and B together)?

PLEASE HELP!

40*$0.75 +100*(-$0.20) = $30 -20 = $10

Paul's portfolio increased in value by $10.
