Which value is a solution to the inequality 9 - y >12?

A. - 3

B. - 6

C. 8

D. 2

B

Step-by-step explanation:

solving the inequality

9 - y > 12 (subtract 9 from both sides)

- y > 3 (multiply both sides by - 1)

Remembering to reverse the inequality symbol when multiplying / dividing by a negative quantity

y < - 3 ← reverse symbol

Thus y is less than or equal to - 3

The only value from the list which makes this true is - 6 → B

-3

see explanation:

9-y>12

-y>12-9

-y>3

y<-3
