In one way, it's just common sense, but there are several phrases you need to be familiar with.
For example,
"5 less x" becomes 5-x.
"5 less than x" becomes x-5.
"5 is less than x" becomes 5<x.
"5 minus x" is 5-x, but
"5 subtracted from x" is x-5.
"5 diminished by x" is 5-x.
A good algebra book should have a list of 20 or so examples like this.
The differnce between a verbal model and a algebraic model is that a verbal model is an equation written in words and a algebraic model is solving the equation from the verbal model.
The equation 5x plus 7 times 18 is know as a verbal sentence. This is a math problem.

Well, it depends on what type of equation you have...... Say its something like this: n - 3 ....and you were asked to write a verbal expression, it could be one of many: a number minus three or three subtracted from a number....and so on. They are basically just word/sentence forms of the equation itself.
The verbal expression that represents the algebraic expression 2x-8 is "twice a number decreased by 8." In this expression, "2x" represents twice the value of a variable "x," and "-8" indicates that 8 is being subtracted from that value. Therefore, "twice a number decreased by 8" accurately describes the algebraic expression 2x-8.

You just wrote the verbal equation. Do you mean the algebraic equation? X - 4 = - 12 ---------------
uh i really don't KNOW ok

The equation z-19 time 34 is a verbal sentence. This a math problem.
The equation x square -9 times 27 is a verbal sentence. This is a math problem.
The equation 5x plus 7 times 18 is know as a verbal sentence. This is a math problem.
Verbal Sentence is just putting an equation into words. For Example: R=(a-b) (cubed) The sentence: The difference of a-b cubed is equal to R.
