D. [tex]10-2[/tex]


Sagot :

To solve this problem, let's first determine the value of [tex]\(3 + 7\)[/tex].

[tex]\[ 3 + 7 = 10 \][/tex]

Now, we need to compare this result with the values of each of the choices provided.

1. Choice A: [tex]\(9 + 4\)[/tex]

[tex]\[ 9 + 4 = 13 \][/tex]

2. Choice B: [tex]\(8 + 2\)[/tex]

[tex]\[ 8 + 2 = 10 \][/tex]

3. Choice C: [tex]\(7 + 3\)[/tex]

[tex]\[ 7 + 3 = 10 \][/tex]

4. Choice D: [tex]\(10 - 2\)[/tex]

[tex]\[ 10 - 2 = 8 \][/tex]

Now let's compare the value of [tex]\(10\)[/tex] with each of these results:

- [tex]\(10 > 13\)[/tex]: This is false.
- [tex]\(10 > 10\)[/tex]: This is false.
- [tex]\(10 > 10\)[/tex]: This is false.
- [tex]\(10 > 8\)[/tex]: This is true.

So, the only comparison that holds is [tex]\(10 > 8\)[/tex].

Hence, the best choice for the statement [tex]\(3 + 7 > ?\)[/tex] is:

[tex]\[ \boxed{10 - 2} \][/tex]
