Answer 1

Explanation:

1.) here,

let the number be x

=》15 = 6x + 3

=》6x = 15 - 3

=》x = 12 ÷ 6

=》x = 2

hence, the number is 2

2.) let the number be y

=》

`13 = 7 + (y)/(5)`

=》

`(y)/(5) = 13 - 7`

=》

`y = 5 * 6`

=》

`y = 30`

hence,the number is 30

3.) let the number be z

=》3z - 8 = -23

=》3z = -23 + 8

=》z = -15 ÷ 3

=》z = -5

hence, the number is -5
