To find the value of y in the formula y = 5a + 3b + c, we need to substitute the given values for a, b, and c into the equation.
Given:
- a = 12
- b = 4
- c = 8
Now, let’s substitute these values into the formula:
y = 5(12) + 3(4) + 8
Calculating each term:
- 5(12) = 60
- 3(4) = 12
- c = 8
Now combine these results:
y = 60 + 12 + 8
y = 80
So, the value of y is 80.
