Which of the following algebraic expressions describes the verbal expression below? six less than the square of the sum of 5 and a number. a. (5+x)^2 -6 b. 5+x^2 -6 c. 5^2 +x-6 d. 6- {5+x^2}

In this question, we have to find the algebraic expression of Six less than the square of the sum of 5 and a number.

And here the number is x.

Sum of 5 and a number x is represented as

And the square of sum of 5 and the number x is

And finally it is six less than the expression we got above, that is

Therefore out of the four options, correct option is A .

For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.

We have then:

x: unknown number
