Which equation represents the statement: Three times the sum of a number and 5 is –30? 3n + 5 = -30
3(n+5) = -30
n + 15 = -30
(n + 5) ÷ 3 = -30

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Divide the problem into pieces. The sum of a number and five can be written as , where n is any number.

2. Since the question tells us that this sum is multiplied by 3, we expand the expression to .

3. Finally, the question tells us that this expression is equal to -30. This means we can express the entire statement as the equation .

can i see the following ?

step-by-step explanation:

$3720

step-by-step explanation:

taxable income = $31000

as per the 2018-2019 us tax bracket, the tax rate is 12% for an individual whose taxable income is between $9,526 to $38,700.

so, the tax to be paid by him = 12% of 31000

= 0.12 * 31000     [12% converted to decimal as 0.12]

= $3720
