A drama club's production of "Oklahoma!" is going to cost $1,250 to produce. How many tickets will they need to sell for $8.00 each to make a profit of at least $830.00?
.
Let n = number of tickets sold
.
"ticket sales" = "production costs" + "profit"
8n = 1250+830
8n = 2080
n = 2080/8
n = 260 tickets must be sold
