Answer:

To solve for y in the inequality 5(2y - 1) < -15, we can simplify the expression on the left-hand side as follows:

5(2y - 1) < -15

10y - 5 < -15 // Distribute the 5 on the left side

10y < -10 // Add 5 to both sides

y < -1 // Divide both sides by 10 and flip the inequality

Therefore, the solution is y < -1.
