10 + x

x - 5

x² - 8

5x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number = x

10 More Than A Number = 10 + x

5 Less Than A Number:

let the number = x

5 is subtracted from x

= x - 5

8 Less Than A Number Squared:

let the number = x

the number squared = x²

8 is subtracted from x²

= x² - 8

3 More Than 5 Times A Number:

let the number = x

5 Times A Number = 5 × x = 5x

we add 3 to 5x

= 5x + 3
