Explanation:
We have:
(
2
x
+
3
)
(
4
x
2
−
5
x
+
6
)
Now let's distribute this piece by piece:
(
2
x
)
(
4
x
2
)
=
8
x
3
(
2
x
)
(
−
5
x
)
=
−
10
x
2
(
2
x
)
(
6
)
=
12
x
(
3
)
(
4
x

)
=
12
x
2
(
3
)
(
−
5
x
)
=
−
15
x
(
3
)
(
6
)
=
18
And now we add them all up (I'm going to group terms in the adding):
8
x
3
−
10
x
2
+
12
x
2
+
12
x
−
15
x
+
18
And now simplify:
8

3
+
2
x

−
3
x
+
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Change the messy words into numerals
3 times a number minus 2 equals 13
3 × n - 2 = 13
3n - 2 = 13
take 2 to the other side
3n - 2 + (2) = 13 + (2)
3n = 15
Divide by 3 on either sides to isolate n

=

3 and 3 cancels out
n = 5
check:
3 times 5 minus 2 equals 13
3 × 5 - 2 = 13
15 - 2 = 13
13 = 13
The number is 5
