Step 1 :The revenue from the flight is the product of the number of passengers and the cost per passenger. The cost per passenger is \(551 - 5*(n-85)\) where n is the number of passengers.
Step 2 :We need to find the number of passengers that maximizes this product. This is a piecewise function that is linear for the number of passengers less than or equal to 85 and linear with a different slope for the number of passengers greater than 85.
Step 3 :The maximum revenue occurs at the point where the two linear functions meet, which is at 85 passengers.
Step 4 :So, the number of passengers that will maximize the revenue is \(\boxed{85}\).
Step 5 :The maximum revenue is the product of the number of passengers and the cost per passenger at this number of passengers, which is \(85 * 551 = \$46835\).
Step 6 :So, the maximum revenue is \(\boxed{46835}\) dollars.
