Step-by-step explanation:
WE NEED THE FREAKIN' POINTS
-10/2 = rational number
-13.4 = rational number
sqrt 18 = irrational number
22.7(repeating) = rational number
the oddball is sqrt 18 :)
First plug in the numbers 5 x 8 = 40
40-4y+6x8=48
40-4y+48

and you plug that in your calculator to get about -0.27465307216702742285.
