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

The sum of the angles equals 540
There are 3 angles that measure (x - 30) and 2 angles that measure (x)
3(x - 30) + 2(x) = 540
3x - 90 + 2x = 540
5x - 90 = 540
5x = 630
x = 126
x - 30 = 126 - 30 = 96
Answer: x = 126, x-30 = 96
Remember that "of" means to multiply.
(1/12) of 180 coins are dimes. The number of dimes will be
(1/12)*180 = 180/12 = 15
