When a management training company prices its seminar on management techniques at $400 per person, 1,000 people will attend the seminar.  The company estimates that for each $5 reduction in price, an additional 20 people will attend the seminar. 

Let x represent the number of $5 reductions.

Use this information to answer questions 1-4 below.

1) Since R(x) is continuous, we can determine the absolute maximum by evaluating R(x) at the endpoints and the critical number. 

After doing so, we see the maximum revenue occurs when x =________price reductions.

2) The maximum revenue is $______________.  Round to the nearest cent.

3)The price of a seminar ticket is that yields the maximum revenue is $              per seminar ticket.  Round to the nearest dollar.
