-4(5y + 17) < -24y – 32

Answer 1

To simplify the given inequality, let's distribute the -4 on the left side:

-4(5y + 17) < -24y - 32

-20y - 68 < -24y - 32

Now, let's move all the y terms to one side and the constant terms to the other side:

-20y + 24y < -32 + 68

4y < 36

Finally, divide both sides of the inequality by 4:

y < 9

So the solution to the given inequality is y < 9.
