forecast the total monthly revenue from the airline’s passenger service. Under this model,
the total revenue, R, is equal to $354 times the number of first-class passengers, F, plus
$308 times the number of coach passengers, C. Their flight schedule and overall aircraft
capacity limit the total number of passengers carried during a single month to a maximum
of 30,350. The number of coach class passengers is at least five times the number of first-
class passengers, and logically, the number of airline passengers in either class cannot be
negative. Express the model in mathematical form.
