Answer 2

Hey there!

14 + 3y < 65

SOME people replace “<”, “>”, “≥”, or “≤” as an equal sign (=) to make it easier to solve

14 + 3y < 65
14 + 3y = 65

SUBTRACT by 14 on both of your sides
3y + 14 - 14 = 65 - 14
CANCEL out: 14 - 14 because that gives you 0
KEEP: 65 - 14 because it helps you solve for “y”

**65 - 14 = 51**

NEW EQUATION: 3y = 51

DIVIDE by 3 both of your sides
3y/3 = 51/3
CANCEL out: 3/3 because that gives you 1
KEEP: 51/3 because it gives you the value of “y”



NEW EQUATION: y = 51/3

**51/3 = 17**

Answer: y = 17 ☑️
