By doing c+5=3 or 2

huh, is that really the question u want to ask???3*b-5is an expression that is 5 less than a multiple of 3
By using c-5=3or2
By doing c+5=3 or 2
' N ' is the number. 5 less than it is (N - 5).
4x - 5
5n - 7
Let the number be x and so the expression is: 5x-4
Lets assume the number = x. Also the expression means a function of x, f(x) which is often simply called y.So to show less than a number (x) the expression would read:f(x) = x-5 or y = x-5 Hope this helps.
It is: 6x-5
X + 9 < 5

Oh, what a happy little question! To translate "five less than thrice a number" into an algebraic expression, we can let the number be represented by 'x'. "Thrice a number" is 3x, and "five less than" would be -5. So, the expression would be 3x - 5. Just remember, algebra is like painting a beautiful picture with numbers!
