Help me? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A school puts on a play. The play costs $1,200 in expenses. The students charge $4.00 for tickets. There will be one performance of the play in an auditorium that seats 500 people. What is the domain of the function that shows the profit as a function of the number of tickets sold?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the minimum number of tickets you could sell is 0 right? Which would result in a -$1200 profit.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The maximum number of tickets you could sell are 500 right? So 500 x 4 = 2000 - 1200 = $800 profit.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So there goes your domain. (-1200,800)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so my answer would be "The domain is all real numbers from negative 1,200 to positive 2,000"??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

These are my choices: The domain is all real numbers from negative 1,200 to positive 2,000 The domain is all integers from negative 1,200 to positive 2,000. The domain is the integers from 0 to 500. The domain is all real numbers from 0 to 500.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

IS it supposed to be profit or no?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No just the domain...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I guess the domain would be all integers from 0 to 500.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since it is just based off number of tickets not price.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah... That makes sense .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And the range would be (-1200,800)
