Answer:

B. 8x

Explanation:

If Sally's age is represented by x, and Barbara is 8 times older than her, that makes it multiplication. Letter A doesn't give us anything about Barbara's age compared to Sally's, letter C is the wrong number, and letter D is addition, and "8 times older than Sally" is clearly not addition, which leaves letter B to be the only logical answer.
