Step 1: plug in 5 and 2 for your X and Y
Step 2: multiply 8*X or in this case 8*5 and you will get 40
Step 3: multiply 3*Y or in this case 3*2 and you will get 6
Step 4: subtract 40-6 and you will get 34
this can be turned into an equation to be solved more easily. so the amount of bananas can be x. there are 17 peaches. So the equation would be:
(17 - 3) ÷ 2 = x
you begin with what's inside the parenthesis
17 - 3 = 14.
14 ÷2 = 7
x = 7
there are 7 bananas in the bag of bananas
√300 = √100.√3 = 10.√3 and √3 is approx 1.732 therefore 10*1.732= 17.32.
therefore the integers it's between are 16 and 17
