There are 6 cookies in the cookie jar. Sean bakes some more and now there are 15 cookies in the jar. How many cookies did Sean bake?

6 + x = 15.
x - 6 = 15.
15 + 6 = x.
6 - x = 15.

Answer 1

the answer is A hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

6+x=15 (x=9)

Step-by-step explanation:

6 cookies + the newly baked ones = 15 cookies

we know there was 6 cookies and we knew that the result is 15, which means that we "don't know" how many cookies are baked. So the answer is 6+x=15
