To calculate the power used by the coffee maker, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Power (P)} = \text{Voltage (V)} \times \text{Current (I)}
\]

In this case, the current \( I \) is 7 amps, and the voltage \( V \) is 110 volts. Plugging in the values:

\[
P = 110 \, \text{volts} \times 7 \, \text{amps} = 770 \, \text{watts}
\]

So, the coffee maker uses **770 watts**.
