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 coefficient of x is 1
Answer:
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
For this exercise you can convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:
1. Multiply the whole number part by the denominator of the fraction.
2. Add the product obtained and the numerator of the fraction (This will be the new numerator).
3. The denominator does not change.
Then:

You know that he had 30 minutes in time-out, he counted spots on the ceiling for
minutes and the rest of the time he made faces at his stuffed tiger.
Then, in order to calculate the time Calvin spent making faces at his stuffed tiger, you need to subract 30 minutes and
minutes:
or 
Answer:
1. the translation from the original to the translated figure was 2 units up and 1 unit to the left
2. the points of the translated figure if it were translated 2 units down and 3 units to the right would be: A' (4,0), B' (6,-6), C' (5,3), D' (-1,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
If you would like to find the numerator of a fraction, you can do this using the following steps:
denominator ... 6 * 5 = 30
numerator ... x = ?
36 = numerator / denominator
36 = x / 30
x = 36 * 30
x = 1080
The correct result would be 1080.
