Answer 1

The expression =
`(40)/(y - 16)`

Value of the expression = 4 (when y is 20)

Explanation:

Quotient simply means the result you get when you divide two numbers. Thus, dividend (the numerator) ÷ divisor (the denominator) = quotient.

From the information given to us here,

the dividend = 40

the divisor = y - 16

The quotient =
`(40)/(y - 16)`

There, the expression would be
`(40)/(y - 16)`

Find the value of the expression when y = 20.

Plug in 20 for y in the expression and evaluate.

`(40)/(y - 16)`

`= (40)/(20 - 16)`

`= (40)/(4) = 10`

The value of the expression, when y is 20, is 4.
