Question

Translate each sentence into an equation or formula.1. Fifty-three plus four times b is the same as 21.2. The sum of five times f and twice g is equal to 23,3. Three plus the sum of the squares of w and x is 32,4. Degrees Kelvin K equals 273 plus degrees Celsius C.

Answer 1

1) Fifty-three plus four times b is the same as 21:

$53\text{ + 4b = 21}$

2) The sum of five times f and twice g is equal to 23:

$5f\text{ + 2g = 23}$

3) Three plus the sum of the squares of w and x is 32:

$3+(w^2+x^2)\text{ = 32}$

4) Degrees Kelvin K equals 273 plus degrees Celsius C:

$K^{\text{ }}=273+^o\text{C}$
