Question 1169082: an online furniture store sells chairs for $150 each and tables for $550 each. Every day, the store can ship at most 32 pieces of funiture and must sell no less than $7200 worth of chairs and tables. If 22 chairs were sold, determine all possible values for the number of tables that the store must sell in order to meet the requirements.

22 chairs at $150 each means $3300.

That leaves $7200-$3300 = $3900 for the minimum cost of tables that must be sold.

$3900 at $550 each for the tables means at least 6 tables.

With 22 chairs sold, the maximum number of tables sold is 32-22 = 10.

So the number of tables that can be sold to meet all the requirements is 6 to 10, inclusive.
