i think it would be (25t+32v+40s) -0.10(25t+32v+40s)

Answer:

The correct options are 2 and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Claire cuts 25 tulips, 32 violets, and 40 sunflowers. She sells the flowers to a local florist at t, v, and s dollars, respectively.

Total selling price is

[tex]S.P.=25t+32v+40s[/tex]

It is given that Claire’s cost to grow the flowers is 10% less than the total selling price.

[tex]C.P.=S.P.-10\%\text{ of S.P.}[/tex]

[tex]C.P.=(25t+32v+40s)-\frac{10}{100}(25t+32v+40s)[/tex]

[tex]C.P.=(25t+32v+40s)-0.10(25t+32v+40s)[/tex]

This expression is same as option 2. So, option 2 is correct.

Taking out the common factors.

[tex]C.P.=(1-0.10)(25t+32v+40s)[/tex]

[tex]C.P.=0.90(25t+32v+40s)[/tex]

This expression is same as option 3. So, option 3 is correct.

Therefore the correct options are 2 and 3.
