The average profit for mixing specialized metallic paints for a small manufacturing company can be modeled by P(q)=q(98−7q), where P(q) represents the average profit in dollars per quart mixed when q quarts are mixed for one order. Use factoring to find the number of quarts that must be ordered and mixed for the average profit to be $231 per quart. Create a table and check your answer. (Include units in your answers. More information.) You must order (smaller value) or (larger value) of the specialized metallic paints for the average profit to be $231 per quart.
