What is the next number in this series: 9, 19, 21, 32, 34, X?

You Did Great!
You didn't ace the test, but you got high marks! This isn't easy to do considering few of us actually use math like this in our every day life. Kudos for keeping the math alive and your brain well and functioning, and have a look below at your mistakes to learn from them.
You Mad, Impossible Genius!
Wow, are you a retired math teacher? These are high marks indeed! You either got full marks or only had one mistake, and that happens to us all. You are a math wiz and if you haven't used math like this since school, we're double impressed with you. You're awesome!
