Question

a pizza shop owner determind the annual profit in dollars from selling pizza using p(n)=32n - 0.04 where n is the number of pizzas sold. what is the annual proftit if the show owner sells 350 pizzas

Answer 1

To determine the annual profit using the provided profit function \( p(n) = 32n - 0.04 \), where \( n \) is the number of pizzas sold, we simply need to substitute \( n = 350 \) into the equation.

Substituting \( n = 350 \):

\[
p(350) = 32(350) - 0.04
\]

Calculating \( 32 \times 350 \):

\[
32 \times 350 = 11200
\]

Now, substituting that back into the profit equation:

\[
p(350) = 11200 - 0.04 = 11199.96
\]

Thus, the annual profit if the shop owner sells 350 pizzas is **$11,199.96**.
