Answer:
y=25.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find y, you need to get it by itself. Ask yourself, what is being done to y, then to undo that, do the opposite. For example, if 3 was added to y, you would need to subtract 3 to cancel out the 3. In this case, what is being done to y? It's being divided by 3. So, you multiply by 3 to cancel that out. Whatever you do to one side of an equation, you also have to do to the other. So,
8.5= Multiply both sides by 3
3(8.5) = 3() multiply on the left side, and on the right side the 3s cancel out
25.5=y

See Explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Proof: Product of two rational numbers
Using direct proofs.
Let the two rational numbers be A and B.
Such that:
The product:
Proved, because 1/3 is rational
(b) Proof: Quotient of a rational number and a non-zero rational number
Using direct proofs.
Let the two rational numbers be A and B.
Such that:
The quotient:
Express as product
Proved, because 3/4 is rational
(c) x + y is rational (missing from the question)
Using direct proofs.
Let x and y be
Such that:
The sum:
Take LCM
Proved, because 7/6 is rational
<em>The above proof works for all values of A, B, x and y; as long as they are rational values</em>
