Answer:

x = -3/5

Explanation:

The product of five and the sum of a number x and three is twelve

5(x + 3) = 12

Now, let's solve this.

5 * x = 5x

5 * 3 = 15

5x + 15 = 12

-15           -15

5x = -3

----    ---

5       5

x = -3/5

By solving the equation, The value of "x" we get is "[tex]-\frac{3}{5}[/tex]".

According to the question,

The equation will be:

  • [tex]5(x + 3) = 12[/tex]

By opening the brackets, we get

→        [tex]5x+15=12[/tex]

By subtracting "15" from both sides of the equation, we get

→ [tex]5x+15-15=12-15[/tex]

→                 [tex]5x = -3[/tex]

→                   [tex]x = -\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Thus the above answer is correct.
