Correct Question:

Otero translated the phrase "three less than a number" into the expression 3 minus x. Which best describes the accuracy of Otero's expression?.

a. It is accurate. The phrase can be translated as "three" = 3, "less than" = subtraction, and "a number" = X, SO 3- X is the correct expression.

b. It is inaccurate. Three is being subtracted from a number, so X-3 is what he should have written.

c. It is inaccurate. Three is being compared to a number, so 3 It is inaccurate. Three is being added to a number, so 3+ x is what he should have written.

Answer:

The answer is B because three less than a number means that a 3 is less than some number X meaning three is being subtracted from X. So equation should be X-3 rather than 3-X.

What is a factor? _____________________________________________
andriy [413]

Answer: What is a factor?

A factor is a  a divisor of an integer n, also called a factor of n, is an integer m that may be multiplied by some integer to produce n. In this case, one also says that n is a multiple of m. An integer n is divisible by another integer m if m is a divisor of n; this implies dividing n by m leaves no remainder.

Step-by-step explanation: Why can’t certain expressions be factored?

Because there are no common factors other than 1 the constants cannot be factored. And, because there is no x in the second term (10), we cannot factor an x out of the two terms.
