If x = -2/3 and y = 27, what is the value of xy + 5/3 ?
A) -20/3
B) -13/3
C) 5/6
D) 3

Answer:
b)[tex]\frac{-13}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{xy + 5}{3}\\\\\frac{\frac{-2}{3}27 + 5}{3}\\\\\frac{-18 + 5}{3}\\\\\frac{-18 + 5}{3}\\\\\frac{-13}{3}[/tex]
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate the numerator , that is
xy + 5 = ( - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] × 27 ) + 5 = - 18 + 5 = - 13 , then
[tex]\frac{-13}{3}[/tex]
= - [tex]\frac{13}{3}[/tex] → B
