English to Algebraic question: 34 is the same as 5 less than triple the difference of a number and 7

34 = 3x - 26

Step-by-step explanation:

the phrase "the same as" is the same as the "=" sign

So 34 = 5 less than triple the difference of a number and 7

difference of a number of 7 is x - 7

triple x - 7 can be written as 3(x - 7) or simplified as 3x - 21

5 less than 3x - 21 = 3x - 21 - 5 or 3x - 26

34 = 3x - 26

Or 34 = 3(x-26) -5
