y = 2x - 3 is the function rule for y is 3 less than the product of 2 and x
Solution:
Given that we have to write a function rule that represents the given sentence
The given sentence is:
y is 3 less than the product of 2 and x
We can convert the given phrase into equation
The term "less" represents subtracted
Also, the term "product" represents multiplication
So, the given statement is rewritten as:
y is 3 less than multiplication of 2 and x
[tex]y = 2 \times x - 3[/tex]
[tex]y = 2x - 3[/tex]
Thus the function rule or equation that represents the given sentence is found
