What property of inequality can justify the math in Step 2?

Step 1:

−6(3w−7)>−66

−18w+42>−66

Step 2:

−18w+42−42>−66−42

−18w>−108

Step 3:

−18w−18>−108−18

w<6

The justification for the math in Step 2 is the Subtraction Property of Inequality.

In Step 2, you are subtracting 42 from both sides of the inequality, which is consistent with the subtraction property that states if you subtract the same number from both sides of an inequality, the inequality remains true.
