Answer:

2n-8

Explanation:

The expression eight less then twice a number will be shown in the following steps.


First, we tackle the first part of the sentence “Eight less” from here we can derive that there is a -8 in the expression.


Secondly, we can tackle the second part “twice a number” so this would be mean 2 times N, or 2n


From the two steps previously we can the conclude the answer must be 2n-8
