a. IT = 9.75 * X

b. GT = 4500 + 4.25 * X

c. G = 9.75 * X - 4500 - 4.25 * X

Step-by-step explanation:

With the data of the statement we can get a function. Let X be the number of pounds sold.

to. Monthly income

IT = 9.75 * X

b. Monthly expenses

GT = 4500 + 4.25 * X

c. Monthly Earnings (Monthly Income - Monthly Expenses)

G = 9.75 * X - (4500 + 4.25 * X)

G = 9.75 * X - 4500 - 4.25 * X
