You can put this solution on YOUR website! The profit (or loss) in dollars, P, after the sale is complete in terms of the number of tickets sold, x, is given by the equation: P=3x-(100+2x)
How many tickets must the club members sell to make a $300 profit?
Solve:: 3x-100-2x = 300
x = 400 (# of tickets they must sell)
----------------------------------------
How many tickets must the club members sell before they break even?
Solve: 3x-100-2x = 0
x = 100 (# of tickets they must sell)
