3x + 5 = 23
5 more than(addition) 3 times(multiplication) a variable(x) is(equals) 23
(you add 5 to 3x)
If you need to solve for "x", you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the equation:
3x + 5 = 23 Subtract 5 on both sides
3x + 5 - 5 = 23 - 5
3x = 18 Divide 3 on both sides to get "x" by itself

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
64/125 cubic meter
Step-by-step explanation:
volume = l × b × h
volume of a cube = s × s × s
∴ 4/5 × 4/5 × 4/5 = 64/125
12 meters because 100 centimeters is equal to one meter.
Answer:
4x² -20x +61
Step-by-step explanation:
the quadratic equation can be written as (x-root1)(x-root2)
(x-(5/2) -3i) (x-(5/2)+3i), distribute
x² -(5/2)x +3xi -(5/2)x + 25/4 -(15/2)i -3xi +(15/2)i -9i², simplify
x² -(5/2)x -(5/2)x + 25/4 -9i², use the fact that i² =(√-1)² = -1 and substitute i²
x² -(5/2)x -(5/2)x + 25/4 +9, combine like terms and rewrite 9 as 36/4
x² -(10/2)x +25/4 + 36/4, combine like terms and simplify
x² -5x +61/4 is the quadratic expression yet it does not have integer coefficients so multiply by 4 to have all coefficients integers
4x² -20x +61
