For the first month we have the following profit or benefit:

$ 6,400

For the second month we have the following loss:

$ 4,700

Therefore, the net benefit is given by:

Net Profit = Profit - Lost

Substituting values we have:

Net profit = 6400 - 4700

Answer:

An expression that you would use to find the difference in profit between the two months is:

Net profit = 6400 - 4700

Answer:

[tex]6400-(-4700)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The profit in present month = $ 6,400,

Also, there is a loss of $ 4,700 in the next month,

So, the profit in the next month = -$ 4,700,

Note : Negative sign shows the loss.

Hence, the difference in profit between the two months

= Profit in present month - profit in next month

[tex]=6400-(-4700)[/tex]

Which is the required expression.
