Answer: The correct option is

(A)
r=3l-5.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that r is five less than three times l.

We are to write the expression for r.

We have

5 less than three times l can be written as follows :


3* l-5=3l-5.

Since this is equal to r, so the expression can be written as


r=3l-5.

Thus, the required answer is
r=3l-5.

Option (A) is CORRECT.
