Answer:

a) n = (p + 450) / 30

b) The Minimum number of cakes is 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

p = 30n - 450, where p is the profit in dollars from selling a number of cakes

(n).

a) to calculate the number of cakes (n) needed to be sold for a given profit, we need to make  the number of cakes (n) the subject of formula for the equation.

p = 30n - 450

Adding 450 to both sides:

p + 450 = 30n - 450 + 450

30n = p + 450

Dividing through by 30:

30n / 30 = (p + 450) / 30

n = (p + 450) / 30

b)

If the profit is at least $500, the Minimum number of cakes (n) is:

n > (p + 450) / 30

n > (500 + 450) / 30

n > 950 / 30

n > 31.67

n ≈ 32

The Minimum number of cakes is 32

solmaris [256]

Answer:

511 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P=690

rate= 2%

time = 13 years

let us apply the simple interest formula

A=P(1-rt)

Note the  negative sign (since we are dealing with decrease)

A= 690(1-0.02*13)

A=690(1-0.26)

A=690*0.74

A=510.6

A= 511 approx

Hence the population will reduce to 511 employees
