A charter airline finds that on its Saturday flights from Philadelphia to London all 160 seats will be sold if the ticket price is $200. However, for each $3 increase in ticket price, the number of seats sold decreases by one.

Missing part of the question is;

Find a formula for the number of seats sold if the ticket price is P dollars.

(680 - P)/3

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Let x be equal to the number of seats and hence we can conclude that (160 - x) is equal to the number of seats after the increase in price.

Similarly, the increase in ticket price would be equal to (P - 200)

Due to the fact that for every $3 increase, the number of seats decrease by 1, the equation that links the change in the number of seats to the change in ticket price is;

P - 200 = 3(160 - x)

P = 3(160 - x) + 200

Making x the subject;

P = 480 - 3x + 200

P = 680 - 3x

3x = 680 - P

x = (680 - P)/3
