    In the following problem type, should Nemeth be opened before the variable in the sentence (which normally wouldn't need to be in Nemeth) or wait for the actual math to begin and open before the equation:

    Solve for j: -8 + 2j = 12

    Thanks!

    Shelley,

    I think it would be most appropriate to open Nemeth Code just before the negative number that begins the math expression. In other words, I would leave the variable in UEB.
