The solution to the inequality 4y+1>17 is y>4 use the set notation to express the values of y that makes the inequality 4y+1>17 true

1 answer

To express the solution of the inequality \( 4y + 1 > 17 \) in set notation, we first solve the inequality:

  1. Subtract 1 from both sides: \[ 4y > 16 \]

  2. Divide by 4: \[ y > 4 \]

In set notation, the values of \( y \) that satisfy the inequality \( y > 4 \) can be expressed as: \[ { y \in \mathbb{R} \mid y > 4 } \] This means the set of all real numbers \( y \) such that \( y \) is greater than 4.
