Question 291657: How do you write this statement if algebracic form: 3 times a number is decreased by 5 and this difference is doubled, the result is 14 less than twice the number Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! First name your variable "a number".
How about N?
3 times a number,
Decreased by 5 (subtract 5 from it), so all put together.
Doubled,
The result means "="
Twice the number,
14 less than twice the number
So now put the left hand side and the right hand side together along with "="
