The expression written for: "Half of a number decreased by 6"  is:

               →      " x  −  6 "   ;  

_____________________________________________

               →   in which "x" represents the "unknown number" .

Explanation:

Let "x" represent the "unknown number".

→   "One-half" of a number , decreased by "6" ;

              →  is written as:   "1/2 of "x" ,  minus "6" .

Note that:  " 1/2 of x "  =  "  * x "   =   "  x "  .

Then, we subtract "6" ; from that value;  to write the expression:

fahrenheit

step-by-step explanation:

fahrenheit is more precise than celsius. the ambient temperature on most of the inhabited world ranges from -20 degrees fahrenheit to 110 degrees fahrenheit—a 130-degree range. on the celsius scale, that range is from -28.8 degrees to 43.3 degrees—a 72.1-degree range. this means that you can get a more exact measurement of the air temperature using fahrenheit because it uses almost twice the scale.
