Answer:
-2 and -7
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is about using the Factoring X.
Two numbers will multiply to the number placed at the top. These same two numbers will add to the value placed on the bottom.
Let's look at the factors of 14.
1 • 14 = 14
2 • 7 = 14
Now let's look at their sums.
1 + 14 = 15
2 + 7 = 9
We can see that 2 and 7 multiply to 14 and add to 9.
However, we need them to add to -9.
Note that two negative numbers multiplied will become positive.
-2 • - 7 = 14
Now let's look at their sum.
-2 + (-7)
Simplify the negative.
-2 - 7 = -9
We can see that -2 and -7 multiply to 14 and add to -9.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
b=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
99 = 2(-7b + -3) + 7
Reorder the terms:
99 = 2(-3 + -7b) + 7
99 = (-3 * 2 + -7b * 2) + 7
99 = (-6 + -14b) + 7
Reorder the terms:
99 = -6 + 7 + -14b
Combine like terms: -6 + 7 = 1
99 = 1 + -14b
Solving
99 = 1 + -14b
Solving for variable 'b'.
Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '14b' to each side of the equation.
99 + 14b = 1 + -14b + 14b
Combine like terms: -14b + 14b = 0
99 + 14b = 1 + 0
99 + 14b = 1
Add '-99' to each side of the equation.
99 + -99 + 14b = 1 + -99
Combine like terms: 99 + -99 = 0
0 + 14b = 1 + -99
14b = 1 + -99
Combine like terms: 1 + -99 = -98
14b = -98
Divide each side by '14'.
b = -7
Simplifying
b = -7
