Give expression for the following case: ' $ y $ is multiplied by $-5$ and the result is subtracted from $-16$.
Given:
\( y \) is multiplied by $-5$ and the result is subtracted from $-16$.
To do:
We have to write the given statement as an expression.
Solution:
\( y \) is multiplied by $-5=y\times(-5)=-5y$.
$-5y$ is subtracted from $-16$. This implies,
$-16-(-5y)=-16+5y$
The given statement in an expression form is $5y-16$.
