For this case we must raise an algebraic equation:
We have the following statement:
8 less: It is represented as [tex]8-[/tex]
the product of 5 and y: It is represented as [tex]5y[/tex]
is 16: Represented as [tex]= 16[/tex]
Finally we have the following equation:
[tex]8-5y = 16[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]8-5y = 16[/tex]
