Answer:

y > 5

Explanation:

Solving an inequality is similar to solving an inequation, one uses inverse operations. The only difference is that when one multiplies or divides by a negative number, then one must remember to flip the inequality sign.

-4y + 6 < -14

Inverse operations,

-4y + 6 < -14

-6 -6

-4y < -20

/-4 /-4

y > 5
