Question

Which inequality is equivalent to this one? y-85-2​

Answer 1

`y-8+2\leq -2+2`

Explanation:

Since you're adding either 8 or 2 to both sides, the inequality sign doesn't change.

So we can eliminate the first and second choice.

Now it's down to the bottom two.

The third choice is adding 2 to the left hand side and then adding 8 to the right hand side. You can't add two different numbers to different sides.

Therefore, the last one must be the correct answer.

The last one is adding two to both sides and have the same inequality sign.
