Professor Kremepuff's new, user-friendly textbook has just been published. This book will be used in classes for two years, after which it will be replaced by a new edition.

The number of persons who are taking the course in the second year and are willing to pay at least $p for a copy of the book is 45,000 - 1,500p.
