a motorcycle importer is planning on increasing the price of a certain model by $ 1000 . at this new price 8 fewer motorcycles will be sold per month , but the total revenues will increase by $ 26000 to $ 594000 . what is the number of motorcycles the manufacturer will sell at this new price ?
Select the correct option.
A) 61	B) 62	C) 65	D) 63	E) 64

Rationale: responding to a pm : to solve this question , i will make an equation in x and then make educated guesses . here ' s how : assuming x motorcycles were sold every month initially . ( 568000 / x + 1000 ) ( x - 8 ) = 594000 ( 568 / x + 1 ) ( x - 8 ) = 594 now 568 = 8 * 71 assuming x = 71 ( we have all integers so it is obvious that 568 / x should be an integer . we get 9 * 66 = 594 ( matches ) so he will sell 71 - 8 = 63 bikes this month answer ( d )
Answer: D
