Question

Which is the solution set of the inequality 15y-9 < 36?

Answer 1

15y<36-9 ==>15y<27

y<27/15 ==>y<9/5

answer is B

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer option is C. y < 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following inequality and we are to solve it in terms of y and find its solution set:

$15y - 9 < 36$

Taking the constants to one side of the inequality and variable at the other side to get:

$15y < 36 + 9$

$15y < 45$

$y < \frac {45} {15}$

$y < 3$
