Determine the digits of y from these clues.
the digits of y add to 18.
the first digit is 3 times the third digit.
the second digit is 2 times the third digit.
y is a three digit number.

Y = 963

Step-by-step explanation:

The digits of Y add to 18.  The first digit is 3 times the third digit.  The second  digit is 2 times the third digit.  Y is a three digit number.

Let Y a three digit number be: abc

First digit = a , Second digit = b, Third digit = c

Also given,

The digits of Y add to 18. => a+b+c = 18     eq(i)

The first digit is 3 times the third digit. => a = 3c     eq(ii)

The second digit is 2 times the third digit. => b = 2c     eq(iii)

Putting value of a and b in eq(i)

3c + 2c + c = 18

6c = 18

c= 18/6

c = 3

Putting value of c in eq(ii) and eq(iii)

a= 3c => a=3(3) => a= 9

b= 2c => b=2(3) => b = 6

Thus, Y = abc

Y = 963

the answer is b

$25

step-by-step explanation:

25 - 4.50 = 20.5

20.5 / 2 = 10.25

10.25 + 10 = 20.25

20.25 - 12.50 = 7.75

therefore the answer is $25 as shown as the first number.
