First let's find the cost to make the burritos.

$1.50 + $1.00 = $2.50 needed to make one burrito.

1. To find how much money the restaurant takes in from selling 100 burritos, we can do 100*8.00 which is $800.

2. We have already found the cost of making a burrito, which is $2.50

It says to convert the cost to a negative so I guess it would be -2.50?

3. The cost of making 100 burritos can be found by doing 100*2.50 which is equal to $250. The cost of making 100 burritos is $250.

4. To find the profit, we can subtract the answers from question 1 and question 3. 800-250 would be a profit of $550. The restaurant is gaining money. The price to make the burritos is way less than the money made from selling the burritos.

1. 550 becuase they make a 8 dollar profit, but then they lose 2.5 because to make the burito, they need to buy 1.5 dollars of meat and 1 dollar of ingredient. you get 8-2.5=5.5
then 5.5 times 100 because 5.5 is the amount gain after one burito. you want to find 100 so 5.5 times 100=550
2.-2.5
3.-2.5 times 100=-250
4. resturant makes money, they earn an 550 as said in the first question
