Math Problem Statement

If x=52​y and y=10, what is the value of 4x+4?

Solution

We are given:

  • x=52yx = 52y
  • y=10y = 10

First, substitute y=10y = 10 into the equation for xx:

x=52×10=520x = 52 \times 10 = 520

Now, substitute x=520x = 520 into the expression 4x+44x + 4:

4x+4=4×520+4=2080+4=20844x + 4 = 4 \times 520 + 4 = 2080 + 4 = 2084

Thus, the value of 4x+44x + 4 is 2084\boxed{2084}.
