An online furniture store sells chairs for $200 each and tables for $500 each. Every day, the store can ship no more than 29 pieces of furniture and must sell at least $8800 worth of chairs and tables. If 14 chairs were sold, determine all possible values for the number of tables that the store must sell in order to meet the requirements. Your answer should be a comma separated list of values. If there are no possible solutions, submit an empty answer?

Answer:

12,13,14,15

Step-by-step explanation:

200x14=2,800

8,800-2,800=6,000

6,000/500=12

12+14=26

13+14=27

14+14=28

14+15=29

The minimum number of tables they could sell is 12 and the maximum is 15, making these numbers, and all the numbers in-between true solutions.
