Answer:

y > 6

Explanation:

3 x
(y)/(2) - 4 >
(4)/(5) + 7 x
(y)/(10)

---

Subtract 7
(y)/(10) from both sides

3 x
(y)/(2) - 4 - 7 x
(y)/(10) - 7 x
(y)/(10) (simplify) ->
(4y)/(5) - 4 >
(4)/(5)

Add 4 to both sides


(4y)/(5) - 4 + 4 >
(4)/(5) + 4 (simplify) ->
(4y)/(5) >
(24)/(5)

Mulitply both sides by 5


(5x4y)/(5) >
(24 x 5)/(5) (simplify) -> 4y >24

Divide both sides by 4


(4y)/(4) >
(24)/(4) (simplify) -> y > 6
