Question

Which number line shows the solution to the inequality? y - 2 < -5

Answer 1

Answer: is the first option .

Explanation:

Answer 2

For this case we have the following inequality:

`y - 2 \ \textless \ -5`
We will solve the inequality algebraically.
We have then:
We add 2 to both sides of the inequality:

`y - 2 + 2 \ \textless \ -5 + 2`
Rewriting we have:

`y \ \textless \ - 3`
Therefore the solution is:
(-inf, -3)
Answer:
(-inf, -3)
