Answer:

y < 15

Explanation:

7y + 7(3 − y) > 2y − 9 (Given)

7y + 21 - 7y > 2y - 9 (distributive property of inequality)

21 > 2y - 9 (combine like terms)

-2y > -30 (subtraction property of inequality)

y < 15 (division property of inequality) (sign changes side because it was divided by a negative number).
