Five added to three times a number is 29.

Three more than a number times two and the result is twelve.

The sum of plus 7 minus 13 is 27.

The product of ten and a number plus eight equals eighty-eight

3x + 5 = 29
2(x+3)= 12

Your third statement is incorrect.
7 - 13 cannot equal 27. You left out some words.

10x + 8 = 88

Sorry, here is what it's suppose to say:

The sum of 3x plus 7 minus 13 is 27.

You have pretty much stated that one algebraically already
(3x+7) -13 = 27
