Answer:

The correct option is D) y-8+2 <(with the line under it)-2+2.

Add 2 to the both the sides.


y-8+2\leq -2+2


y-6\leq 0

Now consider the provided inequality.

The option A) is incorrect because the sign of inequity is wrong.

The option B) is incorrect because the sign of inequity is wrong.

The option C) is incorrect because it should be +2 on both the sides.

The option D) is correct.

Therefore the correct option is D) y-8+2 <(with the line under it)-2+2.
