Answer:
b. 3x - (5y -7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent "a number". Let y represent "another number."
The "3 times a number" is represented by 3x.
And "5 times another number less 7" is represented by 5y -7.
The difference between these quantities is the second subtracted from the first:
... 3x - (5y -7) . . . . matches selection b.
