determine whether the given numbers are solutions of the inequality.
6,-14,-18,-2
Y-8>2y-3
solutions are
-14
-18
-2
not solution
6
Is this right?

-14
-18
not solution
6
-2
To determine whether the given numbers are solutions of the inequality, you need to substitute each number into the inequality and check if the inequality holds true.
The inequality given is:
Y - 8 > 2y - 3
Let's check each number:
1. Substitute -14 into the inequality:
-14 - 8 > 2(-14) - 3
-22 > -31
The inequality is true for -14.
2. Substitute -18 into the inequality:
-18 - 8 > 2(-18) - 3
-26 > -39
The inequality is true for -18.
3. Substitute -2 into the inequality:
-2 - 8 > 2(-2) - 3
-10 > -7
The inequality is not true for -2.
4. Substitute 6 into the inequality:
6 - 8 > 2(6) - 3
-2 > 9
The inequality is not true for 6.
Thus, your solutions are correct. -14 and -18 are solutions to the inequality, while -2 and 6 are not solutions.
