    The document provides examples of translating verbal sentences into mathematical equations or inequalities. Specifically, it gives three examples: (1) the difference of twice a number k and 8 is 12, which is translated to the equation 2k - 8 = 12; (2) the product of 6 and a number n is at least 24, which is translated to the inequality 6n ≥ 24; and (3) a number y is no less than 5 and no more than 13, which is translated to the inequality 5 ≤ y ≤ 13. It then provides guided practice for the reader to translate the verbal sentence "The quotient of a number p and 12 is at least 30" into the inequality p/12 ≥ 30.
