To find the algebraic expression, simply break the sentence into fragments.

Three times a number - 3x
5 less than three times a number is 5 - 3x.

This equals to 10.

5 - 3x = 10
-3x = 5
X = -5/3.

I believe this would be the solution.

Answer:

Mass of A = 5760 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area is given, so we can set-up a similarity equation to solve for k, proportionality constant. Here, we will relate both of them through k^2, because they are 2 dimensional (area). Thus

Surface Area of A = k^2 * Surface Area of B

28 = k^2 * 40.32

k^2 = 28/40.32

k^2 = 25/36

k = Sqrt (25/36)

k = 5/6

Now, we want to find mass (1 dimensional quantity), thus we can say:

Mass of A = k * Mass of B

Mass of A = (5/6) * (6912)

Mass of A = 5760 grams
