PLEASE HELP ME WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!
An icicle drips at a rate that can be represented by the function f(x) = −x2 + 8x − 7, where 0 ≤ x ≤ 10 and x is the number of hours after the sun has risen. When f(x) is a negative number, the icicle is not dripping. Determine the values when the icicle starts and stops dripping.

A. x = −1 and x = 7
B. x = 1 and x = 7
C. x = 1 and x = −7
D. x = −1 and x = −7

x = 1 and x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the numbers have to be between 0 ≤ x ≤ 10 you can look at the numbers and tell that any of the numbers that have a negative sign in it is wrong. so A,C,D would be wrong because they have a negative sign in it so B would be your correct option. Also i took the test and got it right :) hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
