5*n + (n - 8) = 5n + n - 8 = 6n - 8
Nine less than five times a number is equal to -30
4x - 8 = 8(x + 2)
5
The difference is ten times the number.
5A-2
Nine less than five times a number is equal to -30
Five (5) more than (+) three times a number (3x) is (=) five times the number (5x) less (-) three (3) 5 + 3x = 5x - 3 x = 4
2n - 8 < 5n + 10 -3n < 18 n < -6
Three times a number is 10 less five times the number can be put in the form of an equation that looks like this: 3x = 5x-10. Now just solve for x...
3n>8
' N ' is the number. 5 less than it is (N - 5).
