We can follow the following steps to make an equation and solve it.
Step 1:
five less than 13 means we have to subtract 5 from 13
so it becomes 13-5
Step 2:
A number y is five less than thirteen.
Now in algebraic expressions, "is" stands for "="
So we have:

Step 3:
Solving the equation to find y.

Subtracting 5 from 13, we get :
y=8
Answer:
For the given equation the solution is y=8.
Answer:
I wish you luck
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's find out how many cups serve one person.
3 ÷ 5 = 1.6
1.6 of a cup serves one person.
1.6 × 13 = 20.8
It takes 20.8 (21 rounded) to serve 13 people.
ANSWER
$1,413.81
EXPLANATION
The compound interest formula is given by:

Where P=900 is the balance in the account, t=10 is the number of years and r=0.0462 is the rate.
We substitute the values in to the formula to get:


This simplifies to:

Therefore $1413.81 will be in the account after 10 years.
