The product of a number minus 17 and 5 there might be two or three answers!
A. Five times n -17
B, 17 - n x 5
C N - 17 x 5
D.5(n-17)
E.(N -17) x 5
F. 5n -17?

D. 5(n - 17)

E. (N - 17) x 5

A, D, and E

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to convert this into mathematical expressions.

"The product of a number minus 17": the "number" we can denote as "n", and we have the expression (n - 17) multiplied by something

"and 5": this is the "something" that (n - 17) is multiplied to

Putting this altogether, we have: (n - 17) * 5, which makes A, D, and E correct (because they're all literally the same thing just with different order).

However, all other choices we can eliminate:

B. "17 - n * 5" translates to 17 - 5n, which is NOT the same

C. "n - 17 * 5" translates to n - 85, which again is NOT the same

F. "5n - 17" is not the same as (n - 17) * 5 which can be simplified into 5n - 85

Thus, the answers are A, D, and E

Hope this helps!

i think the correct option is the second option.
