[tex]\blue{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Question:-}}}}[/tex]
Which expression represents "12 less than the product of n and 5"?
[tex]\blue{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}}}[/tex]
12-5n
[tex]\blue{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{How\:to\:Solve:-}}}}[/tex]
First of all, the "product" indicates that you multiply these numbers.
Here we are asked to multiply a number n times 5. This can be written as follows:
[tex]\red{\textsf{\textbf{5n}}}[/tex]
Now, "12 less" indicates that we subtract 12 from something; in this case, this "something" is 5n:
[tex]\red{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{12-5n}}}}[/tex]
Good luck.
