You're missing a closing parentheses but this is what I think you mean??
3%282y-7%29%3E=+4%283y%2B4%29
6y-21%3E=+12y%2B16
-6y+%3E=37
highlight%28y+%3C=+-%2837%2F6%29%29

3%282y-7%29%3E=4%283y%2B4%29+
6y-21%3E=12y%2B16+ subtract 12y from each side
-6y-21%3E=16+ add 21 to each side
-6y%3E=37+ divide both sides by -6 (remember to flip the sign)
y%3C=-37%2F6
If that wasn't the answer in the book make sure you copied the problem right :)
