Question

Write the following statement using variables , constants and arithmetic operations.
y multiplied by 10 and added to 13 = $10y+13$

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Consider the parenthesis as shown in the above image to write a statement

using variables, constants and arithmetic operations:

Here, the given statement is $y$ multiplied by $10$ and added to $13$.

The word 'multiplied by' suggests multiplication that is $y$ multiplied by $10$ means $y\times 10=10y$ and the word 'added to' suggests addition. So, the verbal expression $y$ multiplied by $10$ and added to $13$ can be represented by the algebraic expression $10y+13$.

Hence, the statement $y$ multiplied by $10$ and added to $13$ can be rewritten as $10y+13$.
