p represents each additional person
R(p) = (2000 - 10p)(50 + p)
Shena O.
asked 03/18/21A travel agency offers a package for
$2000
per person if they have
50
or less sign up. For each person in excess of
50,
the agency reduces the price by
$10
for every traveler.
(a) Complete the table to explore the relationship between price and revenue numerically.
(b) Generalize the numerical pattern in the table to write formulas for the price as a function of number of travelers and revenue as a function of travelers.
(c) What number of travelers must sign up to produce the maximum revenue?
What is the maximum revenue and what will each passenger pay?
(d) It will cost the travel agency
C(n)=9000+400n
for this trip if they have n travelers.
Determine the number of travelers needed to produce the maximum profit.
What is the maximum profit and what will each passenger pay?

a) Complete the table.
Number of Travelers, n | Price per person, p(n) | Revenue R(n) |
50 | $ | $ |
51 | $ | $ |
52 | $ | $ |
60 | $ | $ |
(b) The table shows the revenue climbs if more than
50
travelers sign up for the package.
Write the formula for the price if n people sign up for the trip,
n≥50.
p(n)=
Write the formula for the revenue from n travelers,
n≥50.
