Question

If y=1/10 , which of the following expressions will produce a value of 15? Statement 14.7+3y 2y+14.6 15.5−5y 17−3y

Answer 1

Lets get started :)

We shall plugin/substitute the value of y in all expressions

y = $\frac{1}{10}$

14.7 + 3 ($\frac{1}{10}$) = 15
2($\frac{1}{10}$) + 14.6 = 14.8
15.5 - 5($\frac{1}{10}$) = 15
17 - 3($\frac{1}{10}$) = 16.7

The first and third expressions will produce a value of 15
