I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. The equation that can be used to solve the problem would be x + (x + 9) = 47.

The sum of two numbers is 47. ---> x + y = 47 where x is the smaller number and y is the larger. 

The greater number is 9 more than the smaller number.  -----> y = x + 9 

x + ( x + 9 ) = 47

Let n = the number. A number exceeds 45 inequality
blondinia [14]
  This translates to "a number" is greater than 45. All you have to do now is translate these words into an algebraic statement. Basically, you replace "a number" with the variable which it is defined for, and you use the "greater than" symbol to show that the variable is greater than the value of 45.
