how you solve this inequality - comen please - try it writing here step by step

Answer 12

Try all the options :)

The equation is saying that 4y +16 is greater than -8

So A is suggesting Y is greater than -6.
4(-6) + 16 > -8
-24 + 16 > -8
-8 > -8 so greater than this.....

4(-5) + 16 > -8
-20 + 16 > -8
-4 > -8 (Confirmed)

B is suggesting Y is greater than -2. However, with A confirmed this is invalid because y can be -5.

C is suggesting Y is greatter than 2. However, with A confirmed this is invalid because y can be -5.

D is suggesting Y is greater than 6. However, with A confirmed this is invalid because y can be -5.
