A2x
Bx+2
C2x+2
D2(x+2)

Verified Answer :

C2x+2

Sorry, read the question wrong!

x = books were sold on Saturday.


Because 2 more books were sold on Sunday than on Saturday, therefore

(x + 2) books were sold on Sunday.


The total number of books sold over the weekend (Saturday and Sunday) is

x + (x+2)

= x + x + 2

= 2x + 2


Answer: 2x + 2
