The number is 90.

<h3>What is the number?</h3>

Percentage can be described as the fraction of an amount that is expressed as a number out of hundred. The sign used to represent percentage is %. Percentages are a measure of frequency.

When the number is decreased, the number becomes smaller. This means that the original number is larger than 81.

The equation that can be used to represent the information in the question is:

(1 - percentage decrease) initial number = 81

(1 - 0.1)x = 81

0.9x = 81

x = 81 / 0.9

x = 90

A local club is arranging a charter flight to hawaii. the cost of the trip is $574 each for 81 passengers, with a refund of $5 p
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
Let x be the number of passengers.
The discounted cost is given by,

Cost = 574-5(x-81) = 574-5x + 405 = 979 -5x

Total revenue, R(x) = x(979 - 5x) = 979x - 5x^2

At maximum revenue, dR/dx = 0 => dR/dx = 979 - 10x = 0 =>10x = 979 => x =979/10 = 97.9 ≈ 98 passengers

Therefore,
Revenues, R(97) = 98[574 -5(98-81)] = 98[574-85] = $47,922
