Question

Solve
5y+1/5y-25*1/25=0
​

Answer 1

y =
`(5)/(26)`

Explanation:

`5y + (1)/(5)y - 25 * (1)/(25) = 0`

Simplify, remember the order of operarions;

1. Parentehsis

2. Exponents

3. Multiplication/division

4. Addition/subtraction

`5y + (1)/(5)y - 25 * (1)/(25) = 0`

`5y + (1)/(5)y - 1 = 0`

`5y +0.2y - 1 = 0`

`5.2y -1 =0`

Inverse operations;

`5.2y -1 =0`

+1 +1

5.2y = 1

/5.2 /5.2

y =
`(5)/(26)`
