Question 19
InequalitiesSolve the inequality (y − 3)/2 < (2y − 1)/3
- A.y < 7
- B.y < −7
- C.y > −7
- D.y > 7
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: C (y > −7)
Explanation
Multiply by 6: 3y − 9 < 4y − 2, so −y < 7 and y > −7.
Solve the inequality (y − 3)/2 < (2y − 1)/3
Answer: C (y > −7)
Multiply by 6: 3y − 9 < 4y − 2, so −y < 7 and y > −7.
