Respuesta :

Answer: The school band received 87.6S dollars on selling sandwiches at their last fundraiser.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of per sandwich that the school band make be S dollars per sandwich.

Selling price of each sandwich be 20% more than it costs .

So, Selling price becomes

[tex]S+\frac{20}{100}\times S\\\\=S+0.2S\\\\=1.2S[/tex]

Since we have given the expression :

[tex]73(s+0.2S)[/tex]

That means there are 73 sandwiches as cost is per sandwich.

So, it becomes

[tex]73(1.2S)\\\\=73\times 1.2S\\\\=87.6S\ dollars[/tex]

Hence, The school band received 87.6S dollars on selling sandwiches at their last fundraiser.
