Answer:

(B) It decreases

Explanation:

I figured this out with basic logic, but we can use proof to find it out.

If we have
35+k, we can assume that k is around 10.

So
35+10=45.

Now let's decrease k by 1, making k=9.


35+9=44

We can see that the value is decreasing, but let's try one more.

Let's make k=8.


35+8=43

So we can see the general pattern here is that it's decreasing.

Hope this helped!
