Given the statement:

Math Tutors charges $21 per hour for tutors. The tutors are paid $12 per hour. I

Determine the  profit of the company if there are 30 tutors.

Solution:

In order to determine the profit of the company with 30 tutors simply subtract first the amount paid to the tutor from the total payment per hour, then multiply the difference with 30.

= $21 - $12

= $9 

= 30($9)

=$270

Multiply 270 by 30 since tutors are working 30 hours a week.

= ($270)(30)

= $8100

Final answer:

=$8100
