Question 142988


{{{14-5y<=8y-8}}} Start with the given inequality




{{{-5y<=8y-8-14}}}Subtract 14 from both sides



{{{-5y-8y<=-8-14}}} Subtract 8y from both sides



{{{-13y<=-8-14}}} Combine like terms on the left side



{{{-13y<=-22}}} Combine like terms on the right side



{{{y>=(-22)/(-13)}}} Divide both sides by -13 to isolate y  (note: Remember, dividing both sides by a negative number flips the inequality sign) 




{{{y>=22/13}}} Reduce


--------------------------------------------------------------

Answer:

So our answer is {{{y>=22/13}}}  (which is approximately {{{y>=1.69231}}} in decimal form)
