A river boat company offers a 4th of july trip to an organization with understanding that there will be at least 400 passengers. each ticket is $12, and company agrees to refund $.20 to every passenger for each 10 passengers in excess of 400. find the number of passengers that makes the total revenue a maximum.
Answered by Steve
revenue = price * tickets
If 400+x tickets are sold,

r = (12 - .2x/10)(400+x)
r reaches max at x=100, or 500 tickets sold
