Answer:

Yes, Sierra is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4(y + 7) > -3 (4 + 5)

Required

Is she correct

The right parenthesis has 4 + 5.

This can be simplified as: 4 + 5 = 9

So, we have:

4(y + 7) > -3 (4 + 5)

4(y + 7) > -3 *9

The left parenthesis has y + 7.

This cannot be simplified because y is a variable and 7 is a number.

<em>Hence, Sierra is correct.</em>
