Let the number be x and so if 5x-9 = 86 then x = 19
5x - 2
4n-5 (Which is four times a number minus 5)
Let the number be x and so the expression is: 5x-4
Any number less than 3.
Six times a number minus five is less than twice the number plus ten. 6 * n - 5 < 2 * n + 10 6n - 5 < 2n + 10 4n - 5 < 10 4n < 15 n < 15/4 This statement will hold true for all n < 15/4
Five (5) more than (+) three times a number (3x) is (=) five times the number (5x) less (-) three (3) 5 + 3x = 5x - 3 x = 4
Five less than nine is four.
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...
40
65+49-39=75
' N ' is the number. 5 less than it is (N - 5).
One
5x - 2
3-5x
To express "two less than five times a number," we can use a variable, say ( x ), to represent the number. The phrase translates to the mathematical expression ( 5x - 2 ). This indicates that you first multiply the number by five and then subtract two from the result.
The difference is ten times the number.
Nine does not go into five, as five is less than nine. In terms of division, 5 divided by 9 equals approximately 0.56, indicating that nine cannot fit into five even once. Thus, the answer is zero times.
