Answer:

  B.  The graph flips over the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

When you plot the coordinate pair (x, y), you plot the point 'y' units above the x-axis. If you change the sign of that (multiply the function by -1), then the point becomes (x, -y), and is plotted 'y' units below the x-axis.

The graph flips over the x-axis.

__

Attached is an example of a function with its original graph (red) and the graph after being multiplied by -1 (blue). The blue graph is a reflection of the red graph across the x-axis.

The depth of a scuba diver can be modeled by the equation d 0.5t (3.5t- 28.25), where d is the depth in meters of the diver and
user100 [1]
We know that

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

<span>The diver reaches the surface when d = 0
</span>so
<span>0.5t (3.5t- 28.25)=0---------> the solution is
0.5t=0--------> t=0
and
</span><span>(3.5t- 28.25)=0----------> 3.5t=28.25--------> t=28.25/3.5--------> t=8.07 minutes
</span><span>

the time it takes for the diver to reach the surface is when the depth is zero
the time is 8 minutes

the answer is 
8 minutes</span>
