Table 16-1
The table below shows the total demand for viewing a rare penguin species at a local reserve. Ecotour companies have to build discreet viewing hides for tourists to view the penguins.

Tickets are sold to tourists to use the viewing hides.
Any firm can change tickets by steps of 1000 only. Prices for missing quantities are the exact midpoint between two adjacent prices.
