Answer:

y=1 for
y\leq 1

Explanation:

We can solve an inequality much like we solve an equation. We will use inverse operations to isolate y. If we need to divide by a negative then we will need to flip the inequality.


2y+9\leq 11\\2y+9-9\leq 11-9\\2y\leq 2\\(2y)/(2)\leq  (2)/(2) \\y\leq 1

First, we moved 9 across the equal sign to combine it with 11 by subtracting by 9 from both sides.

Second, we divided both sides by 2.


y\leq 1 is the solution. All solutions equal to 1 and less than 1 will work.
