State the given in the question
Given that the sum of a number and 3 is subtracted from, the result is 5
State what is to be found in the question
We are to find the number. In other to achieve this, we would follow the steps below:
Step 1: Represent the number with an unknown
Let x represent the number
Step 2: Interpret the given statement mathematically
If x is the number, then the sum of the number and 3 would be

Then the sum of a number and 3 subtracted from 10 would be

Finally, when the sum of a number and 3 subtracted from 10, the result is 5, would be

Step 3: Solve for x in the mathematical interpretation of the given statement
The value of x is as calculated as shown below:

Hence, the number is 5
It has a coefficient of 4 :)
Answer: 5 games
Step-by-step explanation: A .500 record means that the soccer team won half of their games ( that's how I interpret it). Since they are going to play 30 games, they need to win half of 30 or 15 games to have that record. 15-10 = 5. So, they need to win 5 more games to have a .500 record.
