Question 1102290: A theater's maximum capacity is 500 people. The price of admission at the theater is $515. The function R(n)=15n describes the relationship between the revenue and n, the number of tickets sold. What values of n represents a reasonable domain for this function?
A. any real number n, such that 0≤n≤500
B. any whole number n, such that 0≤n≤7500
C. any whole number n, such that 0≤n≤500
D. any real number

Answer: C. any whole number n, such that
The smallest that n can be is 0, representing the fact that no tickets are sold. On the other side of the spectrum, n = 500 is the max number of tickets that can be sold (assuming overbooking is not allowed) due to the 500 seats available. So that is how the inequality is formed. If you want to break it down further, then it would be the combination of (aka ) and
The variable n can only take on whole number values. Something like n = 2.5 isn't possible.
