A horse-drawn carriage tour company has found that the number of people that take their tour depends on the price charged per customer. The more the company charges for a tour, the fewer people decide to take the tour.

The function c(x)=50+5x represents price charged per customer where x is the number of $5 increases they charge over a rate of $50 per person. 

The function p(x)=100−2x represents the number of customers expected for the day, where x is the number of $5 increases they charge over a rate of $50 per person.

 

What does (p⋅c)(2) mean about the horse-drawn carriage tour company?

 

The horse-drawn carriage tour company can expect to take in $3760 when the charge per customer is $60.

The horse-drawn carriage tour company can expect to take in $5760 when the charge per customer is $60.

The horse-drawn carriage tour company can expect to take in $5760 when the charge per customer is $40.

The horse-drawn carriage tour company can expect to take in $3760 when the charge per customer is $40.

It means to multiply them, and then you get the products.

p= 100 -2x

c =  50 + 5x

 

(p * c) (2)   =   p(2) * c(2)   =  [100 - 2 (2) ]  *  [ 50 + 5(2) ]   =  

 

[ 96 ] * [ 60 ] =  5760

 

This means  that  the company makes $5760   when the charge is $60   per customer

Corrected answer  !!!!
