Answer:

[tex]3x-5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

"five less than three times x"

The unknown number is x

Three times x means we multiply 3 with x

So the expression becomes 3x

5 less than 3x means we subtract 5 from 3x

To get the expression we use variables and operators like +,- . x or divide

So the final expression becomes

[tex]3x-5[/tex]
