Seven subtracted from five times a number, then the difference added to nine times a number
(5n - 7) + 9n
Seven subtracted from five times a number, then the difference added to nine times a number.
To solve this problem, let's break it down into smaller steps:
Step 1: Let's represent the unknown number with the variable "x".
Step 2: The expression "five times a number" can be written as 5 * x.
Step 3: Subtracting seven from "five times a number" gives us: 5 * x - 7.
Step 4: The expression "nine times a number" is 9 * x.
Step 5: Finally, adding "the difference" (5 * x - 7) to "nine times a number" (9 * x) gives us: (5 * x - 7) + (9 * x).
Therefore, the entire expression can be written as (5 * x - 7) + (9 * x).
