Question

PLEASE HELP! 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)=80−2x 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?

A) The horse-drawn carriage tour company can expect to take in $4960 when the charge per customer is $40.

B) The horse-drawn carriage tour company can expect to take in $4560 when the charge per customer is $60.
