Answer 2

Answer: Total expenses = $ 225

Total revenue = $479

Total profit = $254

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost price of each blouse = $25.00

Cost price of two blouses is given by

`25* 2=\$50`

Cost price of skirts = $15.00

Cost price of 3 skirts is given by

`3* 15\\\\=\$45.00`

Cost price of pairs of pants = $30.00

Cost price of five pairs of pants is given by

`30* 5\\\\=\$150`

so, Total expenses for purchasing the items were

Price of 2 blouses +Price of 3 skirts +Price of 5 pairs of pants

`\$50+\$45+\$150\\\\=\$245`

Selling price of each blouse = $38.00

Selling price of 2 blouses is given by

`38* 2\\\\=$76`

Selling price of each skirt = $26.00

Selling price of 3 skirts is given by

`26* 3\\\\=\$78`

Selling price of each pair of pants = $ 65.00

Selling price of 5 pairs of pants is given by

`65* 5\\\\=\$325`

Total revenue from the sale of the items were

Sale of 2 blouses + Sale of 3 skirts +Sale of 5 pants

`\$76+\$78+\$325\\\\=\$479`

Total profit was

Total Revenue - Total Expenses

`\$479-\$245\\\\=\$234`
