Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The net profit of the marketplace is the difference between the revenue and the expenses. The revenue is the product of number of kilograms sold and the price per kilogram.

                           Profit  = Revenue - Expenses

                           600 = 120x - 300

The value of x from the equation is 7.5. The answer therefore for the first question is $7.5. Then, the number of kilogram of cumin she needs to sell to cover the expenses is $300/$7.5 and that is equal to 40.
