Answer:

sample response:

Step-by-step explanation:

Partial and negative tickets cannot be sold, so the minimum number values of e and s are 0. If s = 0, then e = 16, and if e = 0, then s = 20. Therefore, the values of s are whole numbers from 0 to 20 and the values of e are whole numbers between 0 and 16. The greatest number of student tickets sold was 20 and the greatest number of nonstudent tickets sold was 16.
