the graterthan> has a line underneath

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

combine like terms then you have 4y - y >8 - 5

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

3y > 3 then y >1

Simplifying y + 5 + -4y = 8 Reorder the terms: 5 + y + -4y = 8 Combine like terms: y + -4y = -3y 5 + -3y = 8 Solving 5 + -3y = 8 Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-5' to each side of the equation. 5 + -5 + -3y = 8 + -5 Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0 0 + -3y = 8 + -5 -3y = 8 + -5 Combine like terms: 8 + -5 = 3 -3y = 3 Divide each side by '-3'. y = -1 Simplifying y = -1
