A theater group is having a carwash fundraiser. the group can only spend ​$39 on​ soap, which is enough to wash 40 cars. each car is charged ​$5. ​a) if c is the total number of cars washed and p is the​ profit, which is the independent variable and which is the dependent​ variable? ​b) is the relationship between c and p a​ function? explain. ​c) write an equation that shows this relationship. ​d) find a reasonable domain and range for the situation.

Respuesta :

profit = revenue - expenses

P = 5c - 39 <== ur equation
x < = 40

ur independent variable is c, the number of cars
ur dependent variable is p, ur profit

yes, this relationship is a function because for each value of c there is a unique value of p

ur domain (ur c values) will be : 0 < = c < = 40
ur range (ur p values) will be -39 < = p < = 161
