To find the profit or loss made by the vegetables merchant, we need to consider the selling price and the cost price of the onions and potatoes.

Let's consider the following information:
Profit per bag of onions = $100.
Loss per bag of potatoes = $30.

Now, to calculate the profit or loss, we need to know the number of bags sold and the total cost price.

Let's say the merchant sold 'x' bags of onions and 'y' bags of potatoes.

So, the profit made from selling onions would be $100 multiplied by the number of onion bags sold, which is 100x.

Similarly, the loss made from selling potatoes would be $30 multiplied by the number of potato bags sold, which is 30y.

To calculate the overall profit or loss, we need to subtract the total cost price from the selling price(s):

Profit or Loss = (Profit from onions) + (Loss from potatoes) - Cost Price

Since the profit from onions is positive, it will be added, and the loss from potatoes will be subtracted.

Profit or Loss = (100x) - (30y) - Cost Price

Please note that we need the information about the cost price of the bags of onions and potatoes to determine the overall profit or loss accurately.
