A discount store bought two dozen cameras for $14 each. After the cameras didn't sell for a long period, the store
decreased their selling price to $10.99 per camera. What was the
store's overall loss on the two dozen cameras?

72.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Price for each camera = 14

Number of camera = 2dozen = 12 x 2 = 24

Total cp = 24 x 14 = 336

Price for each camera=  10.99

Number of cams = 24

Total sp = 10.99 x 24 = 263.76

Loss = 336 - 263.76  = 72.24

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
