    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 700 pies?

    p(700) = 52(700) - 0.05(700)^2
    p(700) = 36400 - 0.05 * 490000
    p(700) = 36400 - 24500
    p(700) = 11900
