Question

Evaluate the following expression if w = 9, x = 7, and y = 1. 11y - 5 106 16 6 7

Answer 1

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Luckily for us, the expression only contains a variable y, so we can disregard the values for variables x and w.

Note, that y = 1.

With that in mind, let's evaluate the expression by plugging the value of y into the expression.

11y - 5 = ?

11(1) - 5 = ?

11 - 5 = ?

6 = ?

Hence, our expression evaluated to 6 when y = 1.

Cheers.

Answer 2

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the expression:

$11y-5$

and asked to evaluate when w=9, x=7, and y=1.

The variables w and x are not included in the expression, so we only have to focus on the variable y.

y is equal to 1, so we can plug 1 in for y.

$11y-5$

$11(1)-5$

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction.

First, multiply 11 and 1.

11*1=11

$11-5$

Next, subtract 5 from 11.

$6$

The expression 11y-5 when evaluated for y=1 is equal to 6.
