5x - 2
It is the equation: x/9 + 7 = 5
It means that a number is 6 less then -3. you subtract 6 from -3 which equals -9. The answer is -9.
Oh, dude, it's like you're asking me to do math at a party. Okay, so "thrice a number" is just 3 times a number, and "five less than" means you subtract 5. So, the algebraic expression for "five less than thrice a number" would be 3x - 5. Easy peasy, right?
If the number is N then 2N - 5 = 7 then 2N = 12 so that N = 6
x-5=7 12-5=7
Represent the number by n. The equation is 5n - 1 = 3n +5, and the solution is n = 3.
448389 is five less than 448394
3*(n - 5) = 2*n + 11
' N ' is the number. 5 less than it is (N - 5).
100% equals the number. Less than 100% is less than the number. Greater than 100% is greater than the number.

If the number is 'z', then five less than twice the number is ( 2z - 5 ).
There is a 4 in 6 (or 2 in 3) probability of rolling a number less than a five on a standard number cube.

Five (5) more than (+) three times a number (3x) is (=) five times the number (5x) less (-) three (3) 5 + 3x = 5x - 3 x = 4
