Formulating algebraic expressions, equations, and inequalities from written form.

1. Translating Algebra!

2. Translating words to algebraic expressions, equations, and inequalities is a lot like translating between foreign languages.

4. In math we use letters, numbers, and symbols to represent words.

6. In order to properly translate between words and algebra, we need to fill out our worksheet. Lets think of words that represent these operations!

7. EQUAL DIVISION MULTIPLICATION SUBTRACTION ADDITION

13. Get out your classwork sheet. It says Mathematical Translations Classwork.

14. Try these and see how you do! We’ll go over it in just a minute!!!

16. 5. The product of seven and a number y is forty-two _______________________ 6. The quotient of a number and seven is thirty-three ________________________ 7. Four times a number x decreased by eleven ________________________ 8. Four times the quantity of a number n minus eleven ________________________

17. 9. 4x ______________________ 10. 29 – x ______________________ 11. 7y = 42 ______________________ 12. x + 10 = 24 ______________________ 13. 11x + 4 ______________________ 14. 5 – 8 = 4y ______________________ 15. 3(x – 2) = 10 ______________________ 16. ½x ______________________

18. Make sure you study your Algebra vocabulary! You will have to know it for your next quiz!!!
