<span>the product of a number and the same number less 3
x(x – 3)</span>
The words "the product of" tell us we're going to multiply a number times the number less 3. In this case, we'll use parentheses to represent the multiplication. The words "less 3" tell us to subtract three from the unknown number.
a number divided by the same number less five
The words "divided by" tell us we're going to divide a number by the difference of the number and 5. In this case, we'll use a fraction to represent the division. The words "less 5" tell us we need a minus sign because we're going to subtract five.

Alternate interior angles are equal.
2x - 10 = 65 - x
2x + x = 65 + 10
3x = 75
x = 75/3 = 25
x = 25.
The answer is B. addition or multiplication
Answer:
750 of 100,000 chips would be expected to be defective.
Step-by-step explanation:
(3/400) and (?/100,000)
