Question

8y – 24 > –16

Answer 2

what's the opposite of subtracting?

Answer 3

Addition

Answer 4

correct, so you must now add the 24 to essentially both sides, but for future reference, just know that it cancels out on it's current side automatically. so, add 24 to the other side. Then restate your equation.
