Ramundo & Son 6000          4000           4500          7000  

Answer:

The total maximum advertising revenue = $8,500 + $8,000 + $7,000 + $7,000 = $30,500

NASCAR Live 5:00-5:30

Hollywood Briefing 5:30-6:00

World News 7:00-7:30

Ramundo & Son 8:00-8:30

Explanation:

5:00-5:30: The show that generates the most advertising revenue is NASCAR Live ($8,500).

5:30-6:00: Word News and Hollywood Briefings both generate $8,000 in revenue, but Hollywood Briefings revenues drop dramatically in the other schedules.

7:00-7:30: Revenues generated by World News were higher at another schedule, but they fall by only $1,000 to $7,000.

8:00-8:30: Ramundo & Son are the kings of the evening show.
