Solve for y in the following problem: 5.3 x 10- (y)(2y)

The value of y = 5.1478

Explanation:

The linear equation is an equation obtained when a linear polynomial is equated to zero. When the solution obtained on solving the equation is substituted in the equation in place of the unknown, the equation gets satisfied.

The given equation: 5.3 x 10- (y)(2y) = 0

⇒ 53 - 2y² = 0

⇒ 2y² = 53

⇒ y² = 53 ÷ 2 = 26.5

⇒ y = √26.5 = 5.1478

answer: c. the experiment shows that the red substance experienced a chemical change.

explanation: chemical change is the change in which chemical composition of the substance changes. physical change is the change in which there is no change in chemical composition.

chemical changes are accompanied by following changes:

a) precipitate formation

b) energy is released or absorbed

c) formation of bubbles

d) change in color

as it is given that the red color has disappeared and there is production of gas, it means the red substance has undergone a chemical change.
