Question 1091128: The club has learned from experience that when they do not charge an admission fee, attendance is 800 people. For every dollar charged in admission, the attendance drops by 8 people. Write an inequality that can be used to find p in dollars that the club should charge so that at least 750 people will attend.

Let p be the price charged for admission. Then:
800-8p=750
8p=50
p=50/8
If the club charges $6.25, 750 people should come.
