<PRE><B>Question 869697</B>
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)
