4v² - 16v + 7
Break the expression into groups
(4v² - 2v) + (-14v + 7)
Factor out 2v from 4v² - 2v and factor out -7 from -14v + 7
2v (2v - 1) - 7 (2v - 1)
(2v - 1) (2v - 7)
2v - 1 = 0 ∧ 2v - 7 = 0
2v = 1 ∧ 2v = 7

Step-by-step explanation:
Your answer is -1. hope this helps
We have the function:

A turning point happens when the function reaches a maximum or a minimum.
In that points the value of the first derivative of the function is equal to 0.
So we can find the turning points by finding the first derivative and equal to zero:
I'm assuming you have to graph a line that shows the combination of earnings.
Our equation is 14.64y + 12.20x = 219.60
We'll be solving for x and y. We'll need to substitute the variables, one at a time, to 0, in order to find their intercepts.
Let's do x first.
14.64(0) + 12.20x = 219.60
12.20x = 219.60
Divide by 12.20 on both sides.
x = 18
Now let's solve for y.
14.46y + 12.20(0) = 219.60
14.46y = 219.60
Divide both sides by 14.46.
y = 15.18
That is actually a long decmal, but since we're dealing with money, we round it down to the nearest cent.
So, now we know x = 18 and y = 15.18.
Graph those on the x coordinate plane and the y coordinate plane, and make a line connecting the two. That line represents all the solutions.
