Question

Choose the correct solution and graph for the inequality-5y<_-15

Answer 1

For this case we have the following inequality:

$-5y \leq-15$

To solve, we follow the steps below:

We divide between 5 on both sides of the inequality:

$-y \leq \frac {-15} {5}\\-y \leq-3$

We multiply by -1 on both sides taking into account that the sense of inequality changes:

$y \geq3$

Thus, the solution is given by all values of "y" greater than or equal to 3.

Answer:

$y \geq3$
