x-2
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.
2X-6
The algebraic expression for "7 less than x" is x - 7. This expression represents the value of x decreased by 7. It can also be written as -7 + x, which means the same thing but follows the traditional order of operations in algebra.
x=5y-12 where x is your answer
That expression is x-6.
In algebra it is: 36-x
let the no. be 'x' therefore, the expression of 5 less than a no. is, x-5
It is: x-5
x - 8
The expression that represents 5 less than twice x is ( 2x - 5 ). Here, "twice x" is represented by ( 2x ), and subtracting 5 from it gives us the final expression.
x - 11
It is: x-5
x - 10
It is: x-5
The mathematical expression for "nine less than a certain number" can be represented as ( x - 9 ), where ( x ) is the certain number. This expression indicates that you subtract 9 from that number.
The expression for "three less than x" is ( x - 3 ), and the expression for "five more than twice x" is ( 2x + 5 ). The product of these two expressions can be represented as ( (x - 3)(2x + 5) ). Thus, the expression representing the product is ( (x - 3)(2x + 5) ).
