Question

Solve the equation 2-(y+9)<-3

Answer 1

Step 1:

Write the equation

`\begin{gathered} 2\text{ - (y + 9) < -3} \\ 2\text{ - y - 9 < - 3} \\ -y\text{ < - 3 - 2 + 9} \\ \text{ - y < 4} \\ y\text{ > -4} \end{gathered}`

Final answer

y > -4

In set-builder notations the solution set is

y > -4

In interval notation, the solution set is

`\lbrack-3,\text{ }\infty)`
