Solve y=40-10+(-40)(-19)/100

$$y = 40 - 10 + \frac { ( - 40 ) ( - 19 ) } { 100 }$$

Solve for y

$$y = \frac{188}{5} = 37\frac{3}{5} = 37.6$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 10 from 40 to get 30.

$$y=30+\frac{-40\left(-19\right)}{100}$$

Multiply -40 and -19 to get 760.

$$y=30+\frac{760}{100}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{760}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 20.

$$y=30+\frac{38}{5}$$

Convert 30 to fraction \frac{150}{5}.

$$y=\frac{150}{5}+\frac{38}{5}$$

Since \frac{150}{5} and \frac{38}{5} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$y=\frac{150+38}{5}$$

Add 150 and 38 to get 188.

$$y=\frac{188}{5}$$

Assign y

$$y≔\frac{188}{5}$$
