    We are given statement : The distance between Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and St. Louis, Missouri, is 17 miles less than 5 times the distance between Pittsburgh and Cleveland, Ohio.

    The distance between Pittsburgh and Cleveland = d.

    We need to write an expression for distance between Pittsburgh and St. Louis.

    And it's "17 miles less than 5 times the d".

    5 times of d is = 5d.

    17 miles less than 5d = 5d - 17.

    Therefore, 5d - 17 expression can you use to represent the distance between Pittsburgh and St. Louis.
