5y-5%2By%3C=2-6y-8 Start with the given inequality



6y-5%3C=2-6y-8 Combine like terms on the left side


6y-5%3C=-6y-6 Combine like terms on the right side


6y%3C=-6y-6%2B5Add 5 to both sides


6y%2B6y%3C=-6%2B5 Add 6y to both sides


12y%3C=-6%2B5 Combine like terms on the left side


12y%3C=-1 Combine like terms on the right side


y%3C=%28-1%29%2F%2812%29 Divide both sides by 12 to isolate y


--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
So our answer is y%3C=-1%2F12 (which is approximately y%3C=-0.08333 in decimal form)
