The sum of the first \(n\) terms of an arithmetic sequence is given by \(S_n = \frac{n}{2}(2a + (n-1)d)\). If the first term \(a = 5\) the common difference \(d = 3\) and \(S_n = 155\) find \(n\).

We substitute \(a = 5\) \(d = 3\) and \(S_n = 155\) into the formula:

\(155 = \frac{n}{2}(2 \times 5 + (n-1) \times 3)\).

Simplify inside the parentheses: \(155 = \frac{n}{2}(10 + 3n - 3) = \frac{n}{2}(3n + 7)\).

Multiply both sides by 2: \(310 = n(3n + 7)\).

Expand and rearrange: \(3n^2 + 7n - 310 = 0\).

Use the quadratic formula: \(n = \frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{7^2 - 4 \times 3 \times (-310)}}{2 \times 3}\).

Calculate the discriminant: \(\Delta = 49 + 3720 = 3769\).

\(\sqrt{3769} = 61\) so \(n = \frac{-7 \pm 61}{6}\).
