1. **State the problem:** We need to find the average price $\bar{p}$ of the product on the interval $40 \leq x \leq 50$ where the price function is given by
$$p = \frac{132000}{490 + 4x}$$
2. **Recall the formula for average value of a function:**
The average value $\bar{f}$ of a function $f(x)$ on the interval $[a,b]$ is given by
$$\bar{f} = \frac{1}{b-a} \int_a^b f(x) \, dx$$
3. **Apply the formula to our problem:**
Here, $f(x) = p = \frac{132000}{490 + 4x}$, $a=40$, and $b=50$. So,
$$\bar{p} = \frac{1}{50-40} \int_{40}^{50} \frac{132000}{490 + 4x} \, dx$$
4. **Simplify the denominator of the fraction outside the integral:**
$$\bar{p} = \frac{1}{10} \int_{40}^{50} \frac{132000}{490 + 4x} \, dx$$
5. **Final setup of the integral:**
$$\boxed{\bar{p} = \frac{1}{10} \int_{40}^{50} \frac{132000}{490 + 4x} \, dx}$$
This integral expression is the exact setup to find the average price on the interval $40 \leq x \leq 50$ without factoring out any constants from the integrand.
