The owner of a luxury yacht charges $600 per person per day if exactly 20 people sign up for the cruise. However if more than 20 people sign up (up to the maximum capacity of 90 people) for the cruise, then each fare is reduced by $4 for each additional passenger. How many passengers will result in the maximum revenue for the owner of the yacht? What is the fare per passenger and revenue?

65 extra passengers, 85 passengers overall Fare per passenger: $340 Revenue: $28,900
