Answer 1

The expression N(s) models the number of students that got a score "s" on the quiz.

Then the expression N(8) represents the number of students that scored 8 on the quiz.

And N(5) represents the number of students that scored 5 on the quiz.

`N(8)>N(5)`

Can be read as: "The number of students whose score on the quiz was 8 is greater than the number of students whose score on the quiz was 5"

Therefore, you can conclude that there were more students who scored 8 than students who scored 5. (option 2)
