Answer:

The required multiplication expression is [tex]75(x-2)[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Marcus purchases 75 shares of stock. A year after purchasing the stocks, the value of the stock is $2 less per share.

Let the value of each shares Marcus purchase was $x.

Now, the value of the stock is $2 less per share. This can be written as:

[tex]x-2[/tex]

Thus the cost of 75 shares will be:

[tex]75(x-2)[/tex]

Thus, the required multiplication expression is [tex]75(x-2)[/tex].

The change will be:

[tex]75(x-2)[/tex]

[tex]75x-150[/tex]

The change will be -$150.
