The given Python code uses a while loop to print the value of the variable x as long as it is less than 9. It starts with x equal to 2 and increments it by 1 in each iteration.

1. x = 2, so it prints 2.

2. x is incremented to 3, so it prints 3.

3. x is incremented to 4, so it prints 4.

4. x is incremented to 5, so it prints 5.

5. x is incremented to 6, so it prints 6.

6. x is incremented to 7, so it prints 7.

7. x is incremented to 8, so it prints 8.

8. x is incremented to 9, but the loop stops because the condition x < 9 is no longer true.

So, the output of the code is:

12345678

So, the correct option is (a) 12345678.

Answer:

The correct output of the given Python code is:

c. 2345678

The while loop starts with x as 2 and continues until x is less than 9. It prints the value of x on each iteration, without a newline character, so the numbers are printed sequentially on the same line. The loop stops when x becomes 9, so the output is 2345678.
