Question

Translate this sentence into an equation.

54 is the sum of 12 and Rhonda's height.
Use the variable r to represent Rhonda's height.

Answer 1

12+ r = 54

Explanation:

If 54 is the sum, we put it at the end of the equations. Sum means 'the answer to an addition equation' so it must be add ( + )

If we use r to represent Rhonda's height then we have the equation of:

12+ r = 54

NOT PART OF THE QUESTION BUT IF NEEDED:

To figure out Rhonda's height, do 54 - 12= r

Answer 2

Answer: 12+r=54

Explanation:

r=Rhonda's height

12+r=54
