Hey there!
For all this, we'll start with defining any variable as "a number", as we're using words.
a) Three less than the product of five and a number.
b) Two times the sum of x and y.
c) Three subtracted from the sum of a number and five.
Hopefully this helps!

Someone help me solve this it's easy i just don't understand simple math

Answer:

The equation — E = mc2 — means "energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." It shows that energy (E) and mass (m) are interchangeable; they are different forms of the same thing. If mass is somehow totally converted into energy, it also shows how much energy would reside inside that mass: quite a lot.

When a number is added to six times its square, the result is twelve. Find the number.

7nadin3 [17]

Let's represent our number as x.
x is being added to 6 * x², and it equals 12
$x + 6x^{2}=12\\6x^{2}+x-12=0$
Factor:
$6x^{2}+x-12=0\\(2x+3)(3x-4)=0$
Solve for x:
$(2x+3)=0\\2x=-3\\x=\frac{-3}{2}\\\\(3x-4)=0\\3x=4\\x=\frac{4}{3}$

Therefore, x = -3/2 and 4/3.
