Can you solve y - 21 < 85?

If you graph it you would put it on the number line of a
-Open circle
-and the line is going towards the one hope this helps you

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve the inequality, we need to isolate y on one side of the inequality sign. We can do this by adding 21 to both sides of the inequality:

y - 21 + 21 < 85 + 21

Simplifying, we get:

y < 106

So, the solution to the inequality is y < 106.

When graphing the solution on a number line, we would put an open circle at 106 and draw the line towards the left, indicating that y can take on any value less than 106.
