Answer: The correct option is (C) 9y + 13.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to select the expression that represents the following statement :

“nine times a number plus thirteen”

Let the number be represented by y.

Then, nine times the number is written as follows :


9* y=9y.

Since we are to add 13, so the final expression is given by


E=9y+13.

Thus, the required expression is
9y+13.

Option (C) is CORRECT.
