Answer:
y≤ -1/4 - 7x/8
Step-by-step explanation:
N represents the quantum number. for n = 3, there are 3 possible sublevels that are 3s, 3p and 3d.
There are four sublevels that are s, p, d and f. In s subshell or sublevel there is 1 orbital, in p sublevel there is 3 orbitals, in d sublevel there is 5 orbitals and in d sublevel there is 7 orbitals.
And there are 2, 6, 10 and 14 maximum number of electrons in s, p, d and f sublevels respectively.
In order to answer this, we will first need to combine like terms on each side. on the left, you can leave them alone. however on the right, we will need to combine 2 and 11. this is 13. the right side becomes 13-16y. after that, we can add 20y to both sides. that equals 15=13+4y now we can subtract 13 from both sides. 2=4y. then we divide by 4 on both sides to find y. y=.5
