Answer: x=5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we can use teh information given to write out an equation and solve. Let's use x for the unknown number.

5x+5=2x+10

The left side of the equation comes from the part that says "five times a number plus 5". That is modeled above. The right side of the equation comes from "has the same value as twice the number plus 10".

5x+5=2x+10                     [subtract both sides by 2x]

3x+5=10                           [subtract both sides by 5]

3x=5                                [divide both sides by 3]

x=5/3

Now, we have found the unknown number, x=5/3.
