Consider an airline's decision about whether to cancel a particular flight that hasn't sold out. The following table provides data on the total cost of operating a 100-seat plane for various numbers of passengers. Total Cost Number of Passengers (Dollars per flight) 40,000 10 60,000 20 65,000 30 68,000 40 70,000 50 71,000 60 72,500 70 73,500 80 74,000 90 74,300 100 74,500 Given the information presented in the previous table, the fixed cost to operate this flight is s At each ticket price, a different number of consumers will be willing to purchase tickets for this flight. Assume that the price of a flight is fixed for the duration of ticket sales. Use the previous table as well as the following demand schedule to complete the questions that follow.
