Question

Evaluate (x-y)/6 when x =3y+44 and y = 5

Answer 1

`(x-y)/(6)=9`

When x is 3y + 44 and y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression:

`(x-y)/(6)`

We want to evaluate the given expression wh

`\begin{gathered} x=3y+44 \\ \text{and} \\ y=5 \end{gathered}`

x = 3(5) + 44

= 15 + 44

= 59

Using x = 59, and y = 5, the expression becomes

`\begin{gathered} (59-5)/(6) \\ \\ =(54)/(6) \\ \\ =9 \end{gathered}`
