Answer:

8 is not in the solution set

Explanation:

Given, -y + 7 < -4

To find out if 8 is in the solution set, substitute y = 8 in the inequality and solve to see if the statement would be true.

Thus:

-8 + 7 < -4

-1 < -4

This -1 is less than -4. This is actually not TRUE. -1 is rather greater than -4.

Therefore, 8 is not in the solution set.
