The product of 5 and the sum of -3 and a number is -20?

Answer 1

Well, let's break it down nice and easy. We start with the sum of -3 and a number, which gives us -3 + x. Then we multiply that by 5 to get 5(-3 + x). This product equals -20, so we can set up the equation 5(-3 + x) = -20 and solve for x. Happy little math!

Answer 2

Well, well, well, looks like we've got ourselves a math problem. Let's break it down: 5 times (-3 + x) equals -20. Solve for x, and you'll find out what that sneaky little number is. Good luck, you'll need it!

Answer 3

The appropriate equation is:

5*(-3 + N) = -20
