Answering math questions for Study.com often involves understanding and using LaTeX to format equations. LaTeX follows simple guidelines, and makes it easy to create beautifully formatted math solutions.

For example, we can display an exponent by typing 3x^2. With LaTeX formatting, we can type it as 3x^{2}. The LaTeX formatting will specially display 2 as an exponent, and the caret won’t appear in the output.

Please rewrite the following expression using LaTeX formatting:

5 (square root 3x) + 2x^2 – (3x/2)

Here are a few common LaTeX formatting symbols:
Square root of x: \sqrt{x}
Fraction x over y: \frac{x}{y}

Please explain how to perform any task of your choosing in 5 steps (ex. How to make a sandwich).
Your explanation should be thorough enough to help someone through the process who has never performed that task before.
