Explanation / Answer

Hello,

Since R(Q) is denoting 'revenue' earned, so the options B and C are out of the picture (since they're regarding the amount of barrels that is Q not R)

Now ,f(p) = number of barrels sold by a company when the price is p dollars.

By definition R(f(p)) will be the revenue earned by selling f(p) barrels. ....(i)

Put in the defn of f(p)

So (i) will become R(f(p)) is the revenue earned by selling barrels when the price is p dollars.

So 'OPTION A' best explains R(f(p)).
