' N ' is the number. 5 less than it is (N - 5).
n x (n -5)
21
5 x n = (3 x 16) - 8 5 x n = 48 - 8 5 x n = 40 n = 40/5 ie 8
n*5 - 6
n - 5
Because - and less both indicate subtraction
' N ' is the number. 5 less than it is (N - 5).
n x (n -5)
Given a number N, you would have: 2*N - 5
The algebraic expression for "4 less than the sum of a number and 5" is (n + 5) - 4, where n represents the unknown number.
I assume that you are referring to:x = 5 + nIf n is a negative number, x is less than 5.ANSWER: x is less than 5 ...[ x < 5 ]
n-5
5/8 < n/6 6*5/8 < n ie n< 15/4 or 3.75
It is 3*n - 5.
4
n/34 - 5
