### Equation
Let's create the equation:
\[ 3x + 5 = 2(x + 1) \]
### Components:
- **Variable**: \( x \)
- **Coefficient**: \( 3 \) and \( 2 \)
- **Constant**: \( 5 \) and \( 1 \)
- **Terms**: \( 3x \), \( 5 \), \( 2(x + 1) \) (which simplifies to \( 2x + 2 \))
- **Expressions**: \( 3x + 5 \) and \( 2(x + 1) \)
### Property Used
The equation utilizes the **Distributive Property**, where \( 2 \) is distributed to both \( x \) and \( 1 \) in \( 2(x + 1) \).

### Word Problem
Maria is trying to save money to buy a new bike. She currently has \( 5 \) dollars saved but wants to add more over the next few weeks. She plans to save \( 3 \) dollars per week.
Meanwhile, her friend John also wants to save money for the same bike. He plans to save \( 2 \) dollars each week and has \( 1 \) extra dollar as a bonus for his birthday.
After \( x \) weeks, both Maria’s total savings and John’s total savings will be equal.
Write an equation to figure out how many weeks it will take for their total savings to be the same.

Let's analyze the equation step by step:
### Given Equation
\[ 5(a + 7) - 2a + 10(a - 3) = 2(4a + 5) \]
### Identifying Different Parts of the Equation
- **Expressions**:
- \(5(a + 7)\)
- \(-2a\)
- \(10(a - 3)\)
- \(2(4a + 5)\)
- **Variable(s)**:
- \(a\)
- **Coefficient(s)**:
- \(5\) (from \(5(a + 7)\))
- \(-2\) (from \(-2a\))
- \(10\) (from \(10(a - 3)\))
- \(2\) (from \(2(4a + 5)\))
- **Constant(s)**:
- \(7\) (from \(5(a + 7)\))
- \(-3\) (from \(10(a - 3)\))
- \(5\) (from \(2(4a + 5)\))
- **Factor(s)**:
- \(a + 7\) (from \(5(a + 7)\))
- \(a - 3\) (from \(10(a - 3)\))
- \(4a + 5\) (from \(2(4a + 5)\))
- **Terms**:
- \(5(a + 7)\)
- \(-2a\)
- \(10(a - 3)\)
- \(2(4a + 5)\)
### Solving the Equation
1. **Distributive Property**: Apply the distributive property to expand both sides.
\[
5(a + 7) = 5a + 35
\]
\[
10(a - 3) = 10a - 30
\]
\[
2(4a + 5) = 8a + 10
\]
2. Substitute these expansions back into the equation:
\[
5a + 35 - 2a + 10a - 30 = 8a + 10
\]
3. **Combine Like Terms**: On the left side, we combine \(5a\), \(-2a\), and \(10a\):
\[
(5a - 2a + 10a) + (35 - 30) = 8a + 10
\]
Simplifying gives:
\[
13a + 5 = 8a + 10
\]
4. **Transposing Terms**: Use the properties here:
- **Commutative Property**: We can reorder the terms when moving \(8a\) to the left side.
\[
13a - 8a + 5 = 10
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
5a + 5 = 10
\]
5. **Subtract 5 from both sides**:
\[
5a = 5
\]
6. **Divide by 5**:
\[
a = 1
\]
### Summary of Properties Used
- **Distributive Property**: Used to expand the terms on both sides of the equation.
- **Commutative Property**: Assumed when rearranging terms during the simplification.
- **Associative Property**: Not explicitly needed in this example as we didn't change groupings of operations.
### Solution
The value of \(a\) that satisfies the equation is:
\[ a = 1 \]
### Given Equation
\[ 5(a + 7) - 2a + 10(a - 3) = 2(4a + 5) \]
