5x - 2
4n-5 (Which is four times a number minus 5)
Let the number be x and so if 5x-9 = 86 then x = 19
Any number less than 3.
Let the number be x and so the expression is: 5x-4
two less than three times a number is 28
Five (5) more than (+) three times a number (3x) is (=) five times the number (5x) less (-) three (3) 5 + 3x = 5x - 3 x = 4
' N ' is the number. 5 less than it is (N - 5).
The difference is ten times the number.
