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}`
