Answer: 32 tickets

Explanation:

Since the theater rents their space for $250 per night and the company charges $8 per ticket, the least number of tickets that must be sold in order to make a profit will be:

= ($250/8)

= 31 1/4

The number gotten above is the number that'll bring about an Equilibrium. To make a profit the company must sell at least 32 tickets
