Question

solve -2y - 7 > 11

Answer 1

We want to isolate the y on one side. First get rid of the 7 on the left. How do we do that?

Answer 2

Add 7 to both sides
So we have
\[-2y >18\]Now, how do we get rid of that -2 on the left?

Answer 3

Do people just type problems in here, run away, and come back later to see if it's been answered. This is supposed to be interactive people!!

Answer 4

-2y > 11+7
-2y > 18
y< -9
