B. p = 710n- 1300
c. p= 190n - 1300
D. p= 190n + 1300
SUBMIT
A

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]p = 190n - 1300[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Monthly = 1300[/tex]

[tex]Expenses = 260[/tex] per car

[tex]Charges = 450[/tex] per car

Required

Determine the profit

Let the number of cars be n. So:

Express on n cars is: 260n

Charges on n cars is 450n

The profit (p) is then represented as:

[tex]p = Charges - Expenses - Monthly\ Expenses[/tex]

[tex]p = 450n - 260n - 1300[/tex]

[tex]p = 190n - 1300[/tex]
