Expressions and equations using words?

Example 1
3x + 6
6 more than three times a number
Example 2
4 (x + 6)
Four times the sum of x and 6

Two more example

$\frac{y-\ 2}{4}\$
The difference of y and 2, divided by 4
$\frac{n\ +\ 5}{2}\ =\ 10$
half the sum of the number n added by 5 is 10

Multiple Choice

YOU TRY: What is the correct phrase for this equation? 9- x = 7

the sum of nine and x is 7

The product of nine minus x is 7

x less than 9 is 7

The quotient of nine and 7 is x

Multiple Choice

One More? What is the correct phrase of the following equation?

x + $\frac{4}{5}$ = 8

The sum of x and 4 divided by 5 is 8

The quotient of x and 4 plus five is equal to 8

4 divided by 5 is equal to x plus 8

8 is equal to 4 and x and 5

Linear Equations and Inequalities

IF we can write expressions, we can write and solve Equations and Inequalities

Multiple Choice

Another Problem:

Which equation represents the following: The number of parts in inventory, p, minus 54 parts sold today is 320.

P + 54 = 320

54 - p = 320

p - 54 = 320

54p = 320

Multiple Choice
