Answer: Yes, it is less than, as the value of the first equation is 14, while the second equation is 100.8
Step-by-step explanation:
1.7y + 37 = 14...........equation 1
9.3y - 25 = ?............equation 2
Find the value of y by subtracting 37 from both sides of equation 1
1.7y +37 -37 = 14 - 37
1.7y = -23
Divide both sides by 1.7
y = 13.53
Insert the value of y into equation 2
9.3 (13.53) - 25
125.83 -25
=100.8
