Answer:
22
Explanation:
First, let's convert this into the algebra language. Because the number is n, we have n - 5, because it is the difference of n and 5, and it says we have to multiply this by 6, so 6(n - 5), and finally, we subtract 2 from this to get 6(n - 5) - 2, and plugging in 9 gives 6(9 - 5) - 2 = 6(4) - 2 = 24 - 2 = 22.
