Given the inequality:
-7y < 14
Solve for the inequality.
Solution:
In order to solve for the inequality, we divide both sides by -7, hence we must take note in the rule for inequality computation that whenever a negative number is divided or multiplied, the inequality sign changes, thus < , will become >.
-7y < 14
-7y/-7 < 14/-7
y > -2
Final answer:
y > -2
