Which of the following equations represents the statement: "the product of a number y and 3, less 8, is equal to 22"?

a.) 3 + y - 8 = 22
b.) 3y - 8 = 22
c.) 8 - 3y = 22
c.) 3(y - 8) = 22

Correct option is second one that is 3y – 8 = 22

Need to determine the equation which represents the statement: "The product of a number y and 3, less 8, is equal to 22"

There are four option given.

Lets first create our equation from given.

Product of a number y and 3 = 3 x y = 3y

Product of a number y and 3 less 8 means 3y less 8 = 3y – 8

And as Product of a number y and 3 less 8 is equal to 22

=> 3y – 8 = 22

On comparing our equation with the given option we can conclude that correct option is second one that is 3y – 8 = 22
