Hi,
For this question, we need to solve this inequality just like we were solving an equation for the variable y alone. Therefore, we first need to subtract 7y from both sides of the inequality to get:
-3 < 3y + 9
Now, subtract 9 from both sides of the inequality to get y on one side of the inequality to get:
-12 < 3y
Next, notice that we need to isolate for y alone by dividing both sides by 3 to get:
FINAL ANSWER:
-4 < y
I hope that helps you out! Please let me know if you have any other questions!
Sincerely,
Andrew

7y-3 < 10y + 9
-3 < 3y + 9
-1 < y + 3 (factor out 3)
-4 < y
Y does not equal anything. This equation means that Y is larger than -4. It covers the whole top of the graph above y = -4. Nothing below -4 is in the solution.

7y - 3 < 10y + 9
7y - 10y -3 < 10y - 10y + 9
-3y -3 < 0 + 9
-3y -3 + 3 < +9 +3
-3y + 0 < 12
-3y / -3 > 12 / -3
y > -4
therefor
values of y can be for this equation
y = (-3,-2,-1,0,1,...,+â)

Operate like solving an equation (with one exception shown below)
7y -3 < 10y + 9
7y < 10y + 12
-3y < 12
y > - 4
Note that if you multiply or divide both sides by a negative number, the sense of the inequality reverses.

Solve for y on one side and everything else on the other:
7y - 3 < 10y + 9
7y < 10y + 12
-3y < 12
y < -4

ok well first move the 7y over to the right side of the equation
so you then have -3<3y+9 then carry the 9 over to the left side so you then have -12<3y then you divide by the 3 so -4
