Question

5 STARS IF CORRECT! Can you translate a phrase or sentence into symbols? Explain the answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

It depends on the sentence or phrase. If the sentence includes an operation of numbers or something related to comparing numbers, then maybe it can be translated into symbols. If the sentence or phrase has nothing to do with quantities, or operations or comparison of quantities, then probably it can't.

Examples:

1) The boy went for a walk.

There's nothing to translate into symbols in this case.

2) I had $10 in my bank account, then I deposited n dollars. Now I have $30 in my account.

In this case, I can translate the sentence into an equation.

10 + n = 30
