✓ Correct Answer: Option A Verified Solution

📘 Step-by-Step Solution & Detailed Explanation:

The MSB of 1001 is 1, so the number is negative.

To find its value, take the 2's complement: invert the bits to get 0110, then add 1 to get 0111 = 7.

So 1001 represents −7.

Check: \(-8 + 1 = -7\).

Answer: (A) −7
