Question A. solve the formula for N
ND=1.08T then N=1.08T%2FD
Question B. Use this to find the number of patient appointments N a doctor should a doctor should make if she has 6 hours available for patients and each appointment is 15 minutes long.
T=6 and D=0.25 (a quarter of an hour)
N=%281.08%2A6%29%2F%280.25%29=26 (aprox)
