\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"15-10y%3C24\"$ Start with the given inequality.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"-10y%3C24-15\"$ Subtract $\"15\"$ from both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"-10y%3C9\"$ Combine like terms on the right side.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%3E%289%29%2F%28-10%29\"$ Divide both sides by $\"-10\"$ to isolate $\"y\"$ . note: Remember, the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%3E-9%2F10\"$ Reduce.\r
