To solve the inequality −2y > 2, we need to isolate the variable y. Here are the steps:
1) Divide both sides of the inequality by -2 to isolate y:
−2y > 2
(-2y)/(-2) < 2/(-2)
y < -1
The solution to the inequality is y < -1.
Now let's match this inequality to its corresponding graph:
The correct match is A. A number line is labeled from negative 5 to 1. There is an open circle on negative 1 and the line is shaded to the left.
