What is the equation to seven less than the product of twice a number is greater than 5 more than the same number

seven less than (-7) than the product of twice a number (2x) is greater than (>) five more than (+5) the same number (x)

2x-7>x+5

treat the > sign as an equals for now

2x-7=x+5

subtract x from both sides

x-7=5

add 7 to both sides

x=12

put the > sign back in

x>12

Let the number be x.

Seven less than the product of twice a number : 2x - 7.

Greater than >

5 more than the same number : x + 5

The equation is: 2x - 7 > x + 5.

That's the answer. But let us just go ahead and solve it.

2x - 7 > x + 5.

2x - x > 5 + 7

x > 12.
