C) 11x
D) 1.11x

Answer 1

Answer:

1.11x

Step-by-step explanation:

0.11x+x=1.11x

Answer 2

Answer:

D) $1.11x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given pair of sunglasses cost $x$ dollars.

Now,

Increase the price of the sunglasses by $11 \%$

$11\% \ of\ x= \frac{11}{100} x= 0.11x$

Price of sunglasses increased by $11 \%$

So, we will add $11 \%$ to $x$

That yields $11\% \ of\ x+ x\\=0.11x+x\\=1.11x$

$Expression$ $x+0.11(x)\ and\ 1.11x \ are\ same$
