    A baker determined the annual profit in dollars from selling pies using p(n) = 52n - 0.05n^2 , where n is the number of pies sold. What is the annual profit if the baker sells 400 pies?

    p(400) = 52(400) - 0.05(400)^2
    p(400) = 20800 - 0.05(160000)
    p(400) = 20800 - 8000
    p(400) = 12800
