Answered by GPT 3.5
To find the approximate number of pages for the seventh book in the series, we substitute b = 7 into the equation N = 41b + 137:

N = 41(7) + 137
N = 287 + 137
N ≈ 424

Therefore, the author will write approximately 424 pages for the seventh book in the series.

The correct answer is B. 424 pages.
