Question

P(c) = 1200c + 2(280) Which statement best describes the meaning of p(4)?

Answer 1

Answer:

$p(4) = 5360$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p(c) = 1200c + 2(280)$

Required

Interpret p(4)

This implies that c = 4

Substitute 4 for c in $p(c) = 1200c + 2(280)$

$p(4) = 1200 * 4 + 2(280)$

$p(4) = 1200 * 2 * 280$

$p(4) = 1200 * 4 + 560$

$p(4) = 4800+ 560$

$p(4) = 5360$

There are no option attached to this question.

I'll assume c represents cost and p(c) represents the profit.

Base on this assumption, a suitable statement is:

When cost is 4, the profit is 5360.
