Question

Which of the following is NOT a solution of the inequality y<-1

Answer 1

Hello.

y<-1

The sign "<" means "less than"

The solutions of the inequality are less than -1.

For example, -2 is a solution of the inequality (it makes the inequality true)

The numbers that don't make the inequality true are greater than -1.

For example, let's take 3.

3 is greater than -1.

Plug it into the inequality:

3<-1

As we can see, we have a false statement.

Therefore, the answer is:

`\mathrm{Numbers\:greater\:than\:-1\:aren't\:solutions}`

I hope this helps.

Have a nice day.
