Answer:

Option C is correct

\(16 = 1.2n+ (-8)\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statement:

Sixteen is the same as one and two-tenths times a number added to negative 8.

Here,

let n be the number.

"one and two-tenths times a number" \(1.2 n\)

"one and two-tenths times a number added to negative 8" translated to \(1.2n +(-8)\)

then;

the equation that represents the statement is:

\(16= 1.2n+ (-8)\)
