How much of an effect will a C+ in a dual enrollment class count on me in college if I'm doing well in other APs?

Hey everyone. I have a question regarding college and certain subjects. This year in my second semester was my first time taking a dual enrollment class (which I heard is equal to making taking an AP class). I decide to take Microeconomics and I was did well for some time and then I began dropping to a 75 I'm pretty sure by the time I finish I'll have a 77/78 and I'm not how public colleges will see that. I'm also taking AP US History and AP Psychology which I feel confident in passing at this point. I've also taken AP Computer Science Principles in my sophomore in which I passed with an A and 4 on the exam. In general, How much will my grade in my dual enrollment course affect my chances in public colleges? Thanks in advance!

most of the time if you can show improvement, a lot of colleges will take that as a good sign but since you're saying this is your 2nd semester, it wouldn't severely impact your chances. I would explain that grade in the additional info box on college apps because if you're a straight A, or B student, a C is a little off. It wouldn't impact it a lot if you're not planning on going to Harvard etc.
