Answer:
negative
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph falls to both the left and right, so the leading coefficient has to be negative, and it must be raised to an even power.
107 = 7 -2 (7b - 1)
First, distribute -2 to all terms within the parenthesis
-2(7b - 1) = -14b + 2
107 = 7 -14b + 2
Combine like terms
107 = -14b (+7 + 2)
107 = -14b + 9
Isolate the b. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
Subtract 9 from both sides
107 (-9) = -14b + 9 (-9)
107 - 9 = -14b
98 = -14b
Isolate the b. Divide -14 from both sides
(98)/-14 = (-14b)/-14
98/-14 = b
b = −7
-7 is your answer

Answer:
Again assuming we're cleared for immediate take off, it takes around 20 minutes to climb to cruise altitude, at an average ground speed of (say) 200 knots. This means we've covered about 70 miles, which the cruising aircraft would have covered in just over 10 minutes. So this final phase has cost us another 10 minutes
A- 998.8×997.7=996502.76
B- 998.84×997.73=996572.6332
C- 998.843×997.731=996576.6252
D - 999×998=997002
So D is the answer
