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.

Respuesta :

Answer:

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.
