Answer:

x = 18.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Gerald's answer is almost correct.

He just needs to switch the 14 and the x.

it should be

24/x = 18/14

solve for x by cross multiplication

18x = (24)(14)

18x = 336

x = 18.7

Give me an expression of nine less than a number

kompoz [17]

So if you want it to be 9 less than your number (x) then you would subtract nine.

So it would be:

x - 9.

So if your "number" is 12 then you would substitute x for 12 and it would be 12-9. The answer is 3. So 3 is 9 less than a number (12).
