Write inverse variation equations

Full solution

Q. Write an expression to represent:

\newline

2

times the difference of

x

and

3

.

Understand the problem: Understand the problem. $\newline$ We need to write an expression that represents $2$ times the difference between a variable $x$ and the number $3$ .
Identify operation for difference: Identify the mathematical operation for ＂difference.＂ $\newline$ The word ＂difference＂ indicates a subtraction operation.
Write expression for difference: Write the expression for the difference of $x$ and $3$ . The difference of $x$ and $3$ is written as $(x - 3)$ .
Multiply the difference by $2$ : Multiply the difference by $2$ . To represent $2$ times the difference of $x$ and $3$ , we multiply the expression from Step $3$ by $2$ . So, the expression is $2 \times (x - 3)$ .
