Answer:
well, okay. its basically what you wrote. assuming there was missing information.
let's dive right into it.
we'll assume that the problem asks for integers, whole numbers.
if x would be 0,
we would get 9 numbers out, 0, -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -7 and -8
if x would one, the range would be from 7 to -8, giving us 16 numbers
if x would be 2, the range would be from 14 to -8, giving us 23 numbers (7 more each time we increasex by one)
so the answer isn't a fixed value, but a function.
7x+9
the plus nine is true when x=0 and is still relevant for every other scenario
