Profits are simply the difference between the selling price and the cost price of an item.

The expression that represents the total profit is 3850x - 22100

The profit (p1) on the first item is given as:

[tex]p_1 = 2000x - 10500[/tex]

The profit (p2) on the second item is given as:

[tex]p_2 = 1850x - 11600[/tex]

So, the total profit (p) on the sales of both items is:

[tex]p = p_1 + p_2[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex]p = 2000x - 10500 + 1850x - 11600[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]p = 2000x + 1850x- 10500 - 11600[/tex]

[tex]p = 3850x-22100[/tex]

Hence, the expression that represents the total profit is 3850x - 22100
