Answer:

350

Explanation:

We have two points on the demand curve as (10, 450) and (15, 200). Using the two-point form of the equation for the line between them, we can find the "y" value for "x" = 12 as ...

y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

y = (200 -450)/(15 -10)(12 -10) +450

= (-250/5)(2) +450

= -100 +450 = 350

We predict the number of tickets sold at $12 will be 350.

The drop in sales of 50 tickets for each $1 increase in price is consistent with other table values.
