Answer: b) the sum of six times a number and five
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is [tex]6b+5[/tex], where b represents any number.
The above expression has two terms combined by addition operation.
In the first term there is one variable b and 6 as coefficient of b and the second term is a constant term of 5.
Therefore, the correct description of the given expression [tex]6b+5[/tex] is " the sum of six times a number and five".
Option: b is the correct answer.
b) the sum of six times a number and five.
We are given an algebraic expression in term of a variable 'b' as:
6b+5
As we could see that here there are two terms in an expression one is: 6b and the other is 5 which is separated by a summation sign.
Hence, when 6 times of a number 'b' is added to 5 we get the given expression(i.e. 6b+5)
Hence, the answer is: Option: b
