fourteen less than three fourths of a number is negative eight find the number
two less than three times a number is 28
Let's represent the number as (x). The phrase "Eight less than five times a number" can be translated to (5x - 8), and "is seven more than the number" can be translated to (x + 7). Therefore, the algebraic equation representing the given phrase is (5x - 8 = x + 7).
The expression can be thus: 3x-3 whereas x is the unknown variable
4/7
3n>8
==> [ 3x - 8 ]
3x-8>15

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