Question: 1 / 2700

"800 more than Biloxi's population" is expressed as which of the following?

p - 800

p + 800

The phrase "800 more than Biloxi's population" indicates that we need to add 800 to the current population of Biloxi. When we denote Biloxi's population with the variable p, saying "800 more" translates mathematically to p + 800. This captures the essence of increasing the original value (p) by an additional 800, aligning perfectly with the mathematical operation of addition.

In contrast, the other expressions provided do not reflect this requirement. One might imply opposite operations (like subtraction or division) or indicate a multiplication scenario that doesn't apply to the context of increasing a population figure.
