Q. Which of the following is a correct interpretation of the expression 6+9? -6+9 ? \newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) The number that is 99 to the left of 6-6 on the number line\newline(B) The number that is 99 to the right of 6-6 on the number line\newline(C) The number that is 66 to the left of 9-9 on the number line\newline(D) The number that is 66 to the right of 9-9 on the number line
  1. Interpret Expression: We need to interpret the expression 6+9-6+9. This expression means starting at 6-6 on the number line and moving 99 units to the right, because adding a positive number moves us to the right on the number line.\newlineCalculation: 6+9=3-6 + 9 = 3
  2. Calculation: Now let's check each option against our calculation:\newlineA) The number that is 99 to the left of 6-6 on the number line. This would be 69-6 - 9, which is not our expression.
  3. Option A: B) The number that is 99 to the right of 6-6 on the number line. This matches our expression and calculation, which resulted in 33.
  4. Option B: C) The number that is 66 to the left of 9-9 on the number line. This would be 96-9 - 6, which is not our expression.
  5. Option C: D) The number that is 66 to the right of 9-9 on the number line. This would be 9+6-9 + 6, which is also not our expression.
