horrorfan [7]

Answer:

The restaurant Manager can afford 6 employees for the day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Manager can spend at most of $400.

Total Money ≤ $400

Cost to operate bank = $100

Cost for each employee = $50

Let number of employees for the day be $x$

Hence the equation will become;

$50x + 100 \leq 400$

Solving this equation we get;

$50x + 100 \leq 400\\50x \leq 400-100\\50x \leq 300\\x\leq \frac{300}{50}\\\\x\leq 6$

Hence, The restaurant Manager can afford 6 employees for the day.
