Question

suppose 7x +14 ice cream cones were sold on sunday. what is the total number of ice cream cones sold?
13x +22
x +6
x +22
13x +6
(handwritten addition: 7x +14 + 6x - 8 = 13x +6, with notes about subtracting and keeping the bigger number)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the terms to add

We have two expressions for ice cream cones sold: \(7x + 14\) and \(6x - 8\) (assuming the second term is \(6x - 8\) from the handwritten addition).

Step2: Combine like terms

Add the \(x\)-terms: \(7x+6x = 13x\)
Add the constant terms: \(14 - 8=6\)

Step3: Form the final expression

Combine the results: \(13x + 6\)

Answer:

The total number of ice cream cones sold is represented by the expression \(13x + 6\), so the correct option (from the given choices) is the one with \(13x + 6\) (e.g., if the option is labeled with \(13x + 6\) as in the handwritten work, that's the answer).
