Answer 1

The correct option is (D) x-7 + 2

Explanation:

let the quantity be x

Quantity minus 7 can be written as

x-7

Now

2 more means adding 2

So the final expression can be written as

(x-7) + 2

Answer 2

The correct answer option is D. (x - 7) + 2.

Explanation:

We are to determine whether which of the given options best describe the English expression:

'two more than the quantity of a number minus seven'

We can break this expression into smaller chunks to make it easier to translate.

1. two more than ---> +2

2. the quantity of a number ---> suppose the number to be 'x'

3. number minus 7 ---> (x - 7)

Combining these, we get (x - 7) + 2 so the correct answer option is D.
