greater than
1/3 x 3 = 1
3x-4
2x-3=x+2 answer x=5
2 x 3 x 5 = 30
greater than
two less than three times a number is 28
Let the number be x Then its square is x^2 3 less than the square of a number is x^2-3 (or x square minus three)
30 (2 x 3 x 5) and 42 (2 x 3 x 7) are the only numbers less than 60 having three different prime factors.
6, 5, 4
Thus: 2*(4+x) = x-3, or x = -11.
If 'x' is more than 1, then x2 is more than 'x'. If 'x' is less than 1, then x2 is less than 'x'.
x + x - 3 = 2x - 3
6 less than x-6 is x-12, and that equals 8 if x is 20 and is less than 8 if x is less than 20.
1/3 x 3 = 1
3x-4
==> [ 3x - 8 ]
