Hey there :)

Before translating the sentence into mathematics, let r represent 'a number'

5 times a number = 5r
2 times that number = 2r

The difference between them = 5r - 2r 

* Your equation 
5r - 2r

* Solving the equation 
= 5r - 2r
= 3r

The temperature in some region of Alaska equals 15 F. Convert this temperature to Celsius.

The formula you need to use is C = 5/9•(F - 32)

So take 15 and subtract 32: 15-32 = -17
Then multiply that by 5/9: 5/9•(-17) ≈ -9.44
