Let x equal .51. The prompt tells us that .51+y = .51 when rounded to the nearest hundredth. From this we can conclude that y must be less than .01 (and must also be less than .005, since that would round up to .01) because if it isn't the statement in the prompt won't hold.
.07 will be greater than any acceptable value of y, so B is the correct answer here
.07 will be greater than any acceptable value of y, so B is the correct answer here
