The property of inequality that justifies the math in Step 2 is:

**Subtraction Property of Inequality.**

In Step 2, you are subtracting 42 from both sides of the inequality, which is a direct application of the Subtraction Property of Inequality stating that if you subtract the same amount from both sides of an inequality, the inequality remains valid.
