Five increased by product of x and three is 23. What is x?

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we must be able to understand and interpret the question

So let's solve

Five increased by the product of x and 3, which means

5 + (x*3) = 23

Always remember bracket first

5+3x=23

Substrate 5 from both sides

3x=18

Let's make x the subject of formula by dividing both sides by 3

x=6

Therefore the final answer for x is 6

Hope you understand

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + (x times 3) = 23

x times 3 = 3x

5 + 3x = 23

23 - 5 = 18

3x = 18

18/3 = 6

x = 6
