Answer:
x + (5x-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
x stands for the number of coins Nancy has
Kevin has 9 less than 5 times what Nancy has, so his part of the expression is 5x-9
To find the total number of coins they have, you have to add Nancy's number of coins x plus Kevin's number of coins 5x-9
x + (5x-9)
But you have to put parentheses around Kevin's 5x-9 so that part of the expression is calculated first, as per order of operations
