Let the cruise ship's profit by represented by P and the amount of rooms booked be represented by r. We can represent this by the equation
P=125r, as we're told that each room r costs $125.
So, if there are 250 rooms booked, the we simply plug in r=250 into the above equation for the profit:
P=125(250)=31250
The cruise ship makes $31,250.
