Question

the homecoming committee bought only 500 plastic souvenir footballs to sell at the homecoming game to raise money for a local charity. The profit (in dollars), p, from the sale of s footballs can be represented by the following equation. p=5s-128
1. Since the homecoming committee bought only 500 footballs, they can sell no more than this. Represent this constraint with an inequality.
2. Is it possible for a profit to be exactly $1500?
3. Is it possible for a profit to be at least $2400?
