It would be n + ( 8 + 6 ) because n is separated from the addition of 8 and 6 as asked in the question.

Answer:

n + (8+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

"The sum of n and the sum of 8 and 6" is telling us that we are going to sum up the numbers 8 and 6 (this would be 8 + 6) and then we are going to add n

So the correct answer would be n + (8+6)

1. (n + 6)8 is incorrect because this expression tells us that we are going to sum n plus six and then we are going to multiply the result by 8.

2. n (8 + 6) is incorrect because this expression tells us that we are going to sum 8 + 6 and then we are going to multiply the result by a number n.

Therefore the correct answer is n + (8 + 6)

$\textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2} \qquad \begin{cases} c=\stackrel{hypotenuse}{x}\\ a=\stackrel{adjacent}{30}\\ b=\stackrel{opposite}{40}\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ x=\sqrt{30^2+40^2}\implies x=\sqrt{2500}\implies x=50$
