Answer:

b) x + 14

Explanation:

If I sold 14 more cups that what I sold Monday, then my answer should be (what I sold Monday) + (14).

Its like saying suppose I drank x gallons of water today. And next day, I drank 14 more gallons than yesterday. That means, I drank the initial amount of gallons (x) & 14 more gallons today (x+14)
