Answer:

A, B

Explanation:

A mathematical sentence expresses a complete thought using mathematical symbols and numbers. In these sentences, the "=" corresponds to the "verb" in the sentence.

The terms 24 and 2x correspond to "nouns". They describe a mathematical object, but say nothing about it.

The sentences:

A. 12n = 24

B. x + 2 = 6
