The total income for Mr Johnson's apartment building is given by the following expression:


5r-2c-3p

where:

r: amount of rent paid by each tenant = $500

c: cost of the cable bill = $80

p: cost of the phone bill = $40

By replacing the previous values of the patameters in the expression for the total incomes you obtain:


5(500)-2(80)-3(40)=2500-160-120=2220

Hence the total income of Mr Johnsons's is $2220
