Answer 1

First, What is the only rule you need to remember when solving inequalities?

If you multiply or divide by a negative number the sign changes.

-4y + 17 < 19           or       -4y + 17 > 19

-4y < 19-17              or       -4y > 19 - 17

-4y < 2                     or       -4y > 2

y > -2/4or -1/2         or         y < -2/4 or -1/2
