Translate the following word sentence into a numerical expression: When you square five times a number, you get three more than the number. Let x be the number.

“Square five times a number” with “a number” being x is the same as saying:

5x²

“three more than the number” is the same as saying:

3 + x

Therefore the sentence “When you square five times a number, you get three more than the number.” is the same as:

5x² = 3 + x

Hope this helps, have a great day! :)
