Question

Evaluate the expression by using the given value of the variables.

y ÷ 2 • 4 – 10 ÷ x + 6 where x = 5 and y = 16
a. 3
b. 21
c. 36
d. –3

Answer 1

y ÷ 2 • 4 – 10 ÷ x + 6 where x = 5 and y = 16

Plug x=5 and y= 16 in the above expression:
16/ 2 *4 - 10/ 5 + 6
= 8 *4 - 2 + 6
= 32 -2 + 6
= 30 + 6
= 36.

c. 36 is the correct answer~
