Answer:

The value of y must be greater than 3/17

Explanation:

To find out the value of y, wee need to solve the inequality


5y-1 > (3y-1)/(4)

Multiply by 4 both sides to remove the fraction


20y-4 > 3y-1

subtract 3y both sides


20y-4-3y > -1


17y-4 > -1

Adds 4 both sides


17y > -1+4


17y > 3

Divide by 17 both sides


y > 3/17

The value of y must be greater than 3/17
