Answer 1

Hello, Vika.

-3y - 5 > 7

add 5 to both sides:

-3y - 5 + 5 > 7 + 5

-3y >12

Now, since you need to solve for y, you need to isolate it by dividing both sides by -3; However, when you multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, you must switch the sign. (Therefore, > will become <)

-3y/-3 <12/-3

y < - 4

This is your solution
