This polynomial does not factor so you have to complete the square or use Quadratic formula.
x^2 + 6x + 7 = 0
Using completing the square, subtract 7 from both sides.
x^2 + 6x = -7
divide 6 by 2 = 3, square 3 = 9, add 9 to both sides.
x^2 + 6x + 9 = 2
(x + 3)^2 = 2
Take the sqrt of both sides
x + 3 = + - sqrt 2
subtract 3 from both sides
x = - 3 + - sqrt 2
This is not an answer choice but it is the correct answer. You either typed the choices incorrectly or the equation incorrectly.
10x - 3 = x + 2 + 2x - 1
10x - 3 = 3x + 1
-3x on both sides
7x - 3 = 1
-1 on both sides
7x - 4
(Check 7x - 4 by adding them all up to equal 10x - 3)
x + 2 + 2x - 1 + 7x - 4 = 10x - 3
combine liked terms
10x - 3 = 10x - 3
Answer:
D) 7x - 4
Answer:
Thus, the coffee shop is willing to supply 6 pounds per week at a price of $4 per pound.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
The marginal price per pound (in dollars) is given by:

where x is the supply in pounds.

The coffee shop is willing to supply 9 pounds per week at a price of $7 per pound.
Thus, we are given that
P(9) = 7
Putting the values, we get,


Now, we have to find how many pounds it would be willing to supply at a price of $4 per pound.
P(x) = 4

Thus, the coffee shop is willing to supply 6 pounds per week at a price of $4 per pound.
It looks like a vertical line that intersects the x-axis at x=-0.5.
It's on the left side of the y-axis.
