Davis bought a second hand cycle for $ 500. He spent $ 80 in repairs and $ 175 in repainting. He then sold it to John for $ 900. How much did he gain or lose?

$145 gain

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first we can subtract the 500, because it is the initial he paid for it, aka if he were to earn that 500 back it wouldn't be a loss or gain. This leaves us with 400 gain, because:

900-500=400

Now we subtract the additional cost to repairing and repainting second hand cycle:

400-80-175= 145

Hence, Davis got a $145 gain.

what is the image?

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
