The algebraic expression for 11 minus the product of 5 and a number can be written as 11 - 5x, where 'x' represents the unknown number.
The product refers to multiplication. So the product of 5 and 2 means 5 x 2, which is 10. Then 10 - 10 is zero.
According to the statement twice a number minus 2 is 8 the answer is 5.

-7
The algebraic expression for 11 minus the product of 5 and a number can be written as 11 - 5x, where 'x' represents the unknown number.
one
Because of the three minus signs, i.e. an odd number of minus signs, the answer is negative.
The product refers to multiplication. So the product of 5 and 2 means 5 x 2, which is 10. Then 10 - 10 is zero.
According to the statement twice a number minus 2 is 8 the answer is 5.
Let the number be x and so the expression is: 5x-11
5
-7
Twice a number minus two giving us the answer as eight is number 5.
yes. An opposite number is the negative of a positive number, for example -5 and +5 are opposite numbers. Since minus x plus is minus and plus x minus is minus and plus x plus is plus and minus x minus is plus then the product of opposites is the same.
11 - 5k. If k is a number then substitute it in. Example if k were to equal 2, then 11 - 5*2 = 11-10 = 1. It depends on the value of k.
