Answer:

The number of sales people needed is 459.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we are to use this method

The number of sales people = the number of customers x call frequency x average length of sales call / average amount of salesperson selling time available annually

So we have the values of the variables as follow;

The number of customers = 40,000

call frequency = 0.75 calls

average length of sales =52

The number of salespeople = 40,000 customers x 52 calls (one per week) x .75 (45 minutes is ¾ of an hour) / 3400 hours

The number of salespeople = 458.8 when we round it up, we will have 459 as the answer.

Answer:

459 sales people.

Step-by-step explanation

Time per call (t) = 45 min = 0.75 h

Hours per sales person (H) = 3,400 hours

Number of customers (n) = 40,000 customers

Call frequency (f)= 52 calls per year

The total number of sales people (S) needed, is given by the total time spent on calls for the year, divided by the amount of hours each person spends on sale:

S=\frac{40,000*0.75*52}{3,400}\\ S=458.8

Rounding up to the next whole person, Pringles needs 459 sales people.

How to do this and find the max or min points
Veronika [31]
I see your last line is : c(x) = 0.9(x^2-10)^2 + 101.1

Let y = x^2, then c(y) = 0.9(y-10)^2 + 101.1

Apparently, c(y) is a parabola, min is 101.1 when y = 10, max is infinity

So let x^2 = 10 -> x = sqrt(10) or -sqrt(10), min is 101.1, max is infinity
