Answer:

y > -7 or y < 5

Explanation:

Step 1: Solve the first equation

y + (-6) > -13

y - 6 + 6 > -13 + 6

y > -7

Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides

-3y + 8 - 8 > -7 - 8

-3y > -15

Step 3: Divide both sides by -3

-3y / -3 > -15 / -3

Since you divide by a negative, you need to flip the sign.

y < 5

Answer: y > -7 or y < 5
