The length of a rectangular photo frame is x cm. The width of the frame is 65 cm shorter than 3 times its length. write an algebraic expression for the width.
Let's assume the width of the photo frame is y cm.
According to the given information, the width of the frame is 65 cm shorter than 3 times its length, which can be expressed as:
y = 3x - 65
Therefore, the algebraic expression for the width is 3x - 65 cm.
