Problem • School has hired a professional magician • Guaranteed audience of at least 1000 people • Total ticket receipts of at least $4800 • Students = $4 • Non-students= $6 • Magician receives $2.50 and $4.50
Equation for the amount of money • 4x+6y≤4800 • 6y≤4800-4x • y≤800-(2/3)x
Equation for the number of people • X+y≤1000 • y≤1000-x
Graph Points: (0,800) (600,400) (1000,0) m= 2.50X+4.50Y m ≤ $2,500
