For this case we have the following inequality:

2-3y> 1

We solve by following the steps below:

We subtract 2 from both sides of the inequality:

-3y> 1-2

Different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed:

-3y> -1

We divide between 3 on both sides of the inequality:

$-y>\frac {-1} {3}\\-y> - \frac {1} {3}$

We multiply by -1 on both sides taking into account that the sense of inequality changes:

$y<\frac {1} {3}$

ANswer:

The solution is:
$y <\frac {1} {3}$
