Answer:
1. 2x - 5
2. 5(x + y)
3. (5 - x)²
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Five less than the twice the number
Let the number be 'x'. 5 less than twice the number = 2x - 5
2. Five times the sum of two numbers
Let the two numbers be 'x' and 'y'. Then the notation would be: 5(x + y)
3. The difference of 5 and a number, squared
Let the number be 'x'. The mathematical expression for the above statement would be: (5 - x)².
