A Number squared decreased by ten

We will do this with steps:-

Step 2 - "A number squared". Our number x is squared i.e. x²

Step 3 - "A number squared" ( i.e. x² ) is decreased by ten

Answer:

Explanation:

This can only be written one way.

Let the number = x

x^2 - 10

is how the statement translates.

x^2 = x*x

the 2 means that you need two xs.

The ^ means that you multiply the two xs.
