The required "option d) 6x – 7" is correct.

Explanation:

To find, an algebraic expression for the given phrase = ?

6 times the length x = 6x

and

7 inches shorter than 6 times the length x

∴ 7 inches shorter than 6 times the length x of a table in inches = 6x - 7

Hence, the required "option d) 6x – 7" is correct.
