In Step 2, the operation performed is subtracting 42 from both sides of the inequality. Therefore, the property of inequality that justifies the math in Step 2 is the **Subtraction Property of Inequality**.

This property states that if you subtract the same number from both sides of an inequality, the inequality remains true.
