Answer:
Explanation:
Quotient of two numbers means that one number is dividing the other since quotient also means division. If we have quotient of ten and a number, this can be represented as 10/y where y is the unknown number.
If the resulting number is increased by 8, then we will add 8 to the function 10/y to give 10/y + 8 (note that increment means addition)
Finally, four less than the quotient of ten and a number, increased by eight will give us te difference between the resulting function and 4 i.e (10/y +8)-4
The resulting equation of the statement is (10/y +8)-4
To evaluate the result when y = 2, we will substitute y = 2 into the resulting function;
f(y) = (10/y +8)-4
f(2) = (10/2 +8)-4
f(2) = (5+8)-4
f(2) = 13-4
f(2) = 9
Hence the value of the expression when y = 2 is 9
