Question

Determine the value of y if x=5

Y=(27/x-8)

Answer 1

Y equals -9 in this equation

Answer 2

y = -9

Explanation:

To solve this question, we input the value of x into the equation y = (27/x-8)

Solve: Input 5 for x

• y = (27)/((5) - 8)
• y = (27)/(-3)
• y = -9

The value of y when x is -3 is -9

Check:

• -9 = (27)/(5 - 8)
• -9 = (27)/-3)
• -9 = -9
