Answer:

For
y=0.1 the value is a prime number.

Explanation:

Given:


y=0.4


10y + 2 is an even number.

We need to find the value of y for which value of equation is prime number.

Solution:

Let us assume that
y=0.1

Substituting the value in given equation we get;


10y+2\\\\=10* 0.1+2\\\\=1+2\\\\=3

Which is a prime number.

Hence We can say that for
y=0.1 the value is a prime number.
