Question

Write an equation to represent the following:

five less than 1/3 a number, n. is 3



Four more than twice a number, x, is greater than the sum of three and negative seven.

Answer 1

1/3n-5=3 for the first one

Answer 2

Five less than 1/3 a number n is 3.

`(1)/(3)n-5=3`

Four more than twice a number x (2x+4) is greater than (>) the sum of three and a negative seven (3-7)

2x+4>3+(-7)

2x+4>3-7
