Translate this sentence into an equation.
52 is the product of Helena's height and 4.
Use the variable h to represent Helena's height.

52 = 4h

Step-by-step explanation:

"Product" tells me that I am multiplying. In this case, I am multiplying a number by a variable. This would be:

4 × h

BUT since I am multiplying a variable, I can just put it next to the 4 because when I see 4h, I know that I have to multiply them.

To figure out the answer to this problem, you have to divide both sides of the equation by 4.

52 = 4h

(÷4)  (÷4)

13 = h

Therefore, h equals 13.

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^
