Beforehand let me apologize for my sloppy handwriting. I'm a lefty, so please deal with me. . Anyway, the equation you listed didn't really have a x, because a linear equation is y= mx+b, and anything with x is the slope. But I did see y and a number on one side, so I'm like maybe I can get these two alone. So here's what I did:
2y + 4=0
-4 -4 I subtracted 4 on both sides. Why because you would want "y" alone.
Next,
2y= -4
Now to get "y" alone you want to divide on both sides.
2y= -4/ 2
y= -2
Now you're probably thinking "how do you graph it? There's no "x" in the equation." Well, you just graph it. Since the answer is y= -2, you go to the y axis, look for -2, and place a line to indicate that is the equation. And to make it clear, remember y is the y-intercept.
I really do hope this helps you, if not message me. I'll be happy to help, and again I'm sorry for my handwriting!
Answer:
The value is 
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The amount charge per year is 
The number of members it will have at this amount is 
The amount amount increase that will lead to the loss of a single member is 
Generally the total amount the club would obtain from its members is mathematically represented as

Now let x denote the number of member lost
Hence

=> 
=> 
Thus the number of members that be removed to give the maximum income from dues is obtained by differentiating the above equation and equating it to zero

=> 
So from
we have


So the amount the club should charge is


C is the correct answer, -7 is smaller than 7.
3 because the 2z minus the 3 gives you 1 rounded
