Answer: y ≤ 8

Solution:

Step 1: Rearrange the equation so that all the like terms are on one side

5y + 16 ≤ 56

= 5y ≤ 56 - 16 constants on one side and variable on the other

= 5y ≤ 40

= y ≤ 8

Hope the solution helps to understand the question!

Tip: Remember that if the inequality is multiplied by a negative sign the inequality sign flips.
