4y-8>10

Add 8

4y-8+8>10+8

4y>18

Now divide both sides by 4

4y/4 > 18/4

y>9/2


Now let's see if it will be true

Replace y by its value

4(9/2)-8>10

36/2 -8 > 10

18-8 > 10

10 > 10

That's false because 10 can not smaller than 10

so it should be = instead


Answer : False


I hope that's help:)
