Question

Match the mathematical expression with its translation.

1. x + y = 6
six less than a number is y
2. x + y
the sum of x and y
3. xy
the product of two numbers is six
4. x/y
x divided by y
5. y ÷ x
y divided by x
6. y = x - 6
six times a number equals y
7. x - y
the product of two numbers
8. 6 x = y
x subtracted from y
9. xy = 6
x minus y
10. y - x
the sum of two numbers is six

Answer 1

Here are the correct matches for each mathematical expression with its translation:

1. **x + y = 6** - the sum of two numbers is six
2. **x + y** - the sum of x and y
3. **xy** - the product of two numbers
4. **x/y** - x divided by y
5. **y ÷ x** - y divided by x
6. **y = x - 6** - six less than a number is y
7. **x - y** - x subtracted from y
8. **6 x = y** - six times a number equals y
9. **xy = 6** - the product of two numbers is six
10. **y - x** - x minus y

Note that the expressions and translations provided contain equivalent values as the initially matched pairs have been corrected based on standard mathematical expressions and their meanings.
