1 answer

Let's go through your questions step by step.

Question 1: Which step is needed to solve the inequality y + 14 < 25?

To isolate \( y \), you should subtract 14 from both sides of the inequality:

Response: Subtract 14 from both sides of the inequality.


Question 2: Determine the solution to the inequality y + 14 < 25.

After subtracting 14 from both sides, the inequality becomes:

\[ y < 25 - 14 \] \[ y < 11 \]

Response: y < 11


Question 3: How should the solution of the inequality be graphed?

Since \( y < 11 \), you would use an open circle on 11 (indicating that 11 is not included in the solution) and shade to the left to represent all values less than 11.

Response: Open circle, shade left

So, the answers to your questions are:

  1. Subtract 14 from both sides of the inequality.
  2. y < 11
  3. Open circle, shade left.
