Question

Which expression represents "9 more than x"? A. x−9 B. 9⋅x9 C. 9−x D. x+9

Answer 1

D is the answer.. it would be x+9

Answer 2

Answer:

C. 9 - x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a sentence expression : 9 more than x.

Let's go over all the expressions and what they say as a setnence.

A. x - 9

This would be x more than 9, since the original number of x is way higher than 9. Making this answer incorrect.

B. 9 * x^9? (I am assuming)

This would be 9 times x, not even the correct property.

C. 9 - x

This would be 9 more than x, though you could say it's addition, the value of 9 is more than x, hence making it subtraction.

D. x + 9

This would be 9 plus x, no number has an official value than another.
