So it's just a simultaneous equations question
Let x=ford and y=holden
gives the equations
3x+4y=390
5x+8y=730
now just solve by using substitution, elimination, cas, matrices or whatever! :)

Since they lost $4000, profit = -4000

We can use Profit = R - C to solve this

Where profit = -4000
R= 1000 x $p
C = (45 x 1000) + 24000

Therefore, -4000 = 1000p - (45000+ 24000)

Solve for p.

Thus, p = $65

Hope this makes sense :)

Thank you, that makes a lot of sense
