The maximum profit would be $1325. Since they make less profit on deluxe seats, you want to get as few of those as possible. You also want to get as many people on the boat as possible, which is 45. The minimum number of deluxe seats you could sell is 5, so that's what we'll use for the max. profit. They make $25 off of each of those seats so 5 times $25 is $125. That leaves 40 economy seats, with a profit of $30 per seat. You have 40 spots left open, so we'll sell 40 economy seats, which will meet your minimum of 14 economy seats. 40 times $30 is $1200. Add $125 and $1200 to get $1325 and you have your maximum profit!
Answer:
<em>x - y = 2</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, you would combine like terms, giving you 4x - 4y + 1 = 9.
Next, subtract the numbers, which gives you 4x - 4y = 8.
Finally, divide both sides by 4, which will come to the conclusion of x - y = 2, the simplest form of which this equation can be broken down to.
Right now, I can only think 26 and 39.
