Translate this sentence into an equation.
The sum of 11 and Matt's height is 64.
Use the variable m to represent Matt's height.

Respuesta :

Answer:   m+11 = 64

It solves to m = 53

==============================================

Explanation:

m = Matt's height

m+11 = the sum of his height and 11

Set that sum equal to the 64 to complete the equation.

The order of m and 11 doesn't matter.

In other words, m+11 is the same as 11+m

----------

Extra info:

To solve this equation, subtract 11 from both sides. You should get m = 53

Assuming that refers to 53 inches, then it would be 4 ft 5 in because

53 in = 48 in + 5 in = 4 ft + 5 in
