James started tutoring children several times a week. the first 2 weeks he had to purchase tutoring supplies and had losses of $40 and $65. the next 3 weeks he made a profit of $105, $70, and $140. at the end of the 6 weeks, he had a net profit of $252.
(a) write an equation to find the profit or loss for the 6th week in this situation. solve your equation. was there a profit or a loss for that week? show your work.
(b) what was james’s average profit or loss for the 6 weeks? show your work.
could i have a detailed explanation on how this would work? we don't know his original price, so how would we find it out and stuff? im just a bit confused.
