A student claims that the expression “9 times the sum of
a number and 13” is translated to the algebraic
expression In + 13. Is the student correct? If not, what is
the correct expression?

The student is not correct since the algebraic expression 1n + 13 translates to 1 times the sum of a number and 13.

The correct expression would be 9n + 13.

This is because it is 9 times a number and 13.

Meaning 9 times n (number) plus 13.
