Due to high jet fuel costs, airline carriers are looking for new ways to increase revenues and thereby counteract declining profits. Airline A has proposed increasing the number of passengers that can fit on its airplanes by creating several standing room only "seats" in which passengers would be propped against a padded backboard and held in place with a harness. This proposal, since it relates to passenger safety, cannot be implemented without prior approval by the Federal Aviation Administration.
The above statements, if true, indicate that Airline A has made which of the following conclusions?
The addition of standing room only "seats" will generate more revenue than the cost of ensuring that these seats meet safety standards.
The Federal Aviation Administration will approve Airline A's specific proposal.
The revenue generated by the addition of standing room only "seats" is greater than the current cost of jet fuel.
There are no safer ways in which Airline A can increase revenues.
Passenger safety is less important than increasing revenue.
