Which expression represents the amount of material y that would be left over if x pieces of wood that are each 5 1/6 inches long are cut from a board that is 82 inches long?

a) y = 82 - 5 1/6x

b) y = 82x - 5 1/6x

c) x = 82y - 5 1/6

d) x = 82 - 5 1/6y

I don't think that it's c or d but I still don't understand it, thanks for helping!

Hold up, is that a glitch, or is that a real person? I can't tell...

Since the answer is correct I would assume that the respondent is real.
