Answer :
n-the number
the product of 8 and the number: 8 × n = 8n
5 less than the 8n: 8n - 5
the product of 8 and the number: 8 × n = 8n
5 less than the 8n: 8n - 5
a - number
the product of 8 and a: 8a
5 less than the product of 8 and a: [tex]\fbox{8a - 5}[/tex]
the product of 8 and a: 8a
5 less than the product of 8 and a: [tex]\fbox{8a - 5}[/tex]
