• Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define inequality

3(y - 2) + 4(3 - 2y) < 6(3y - 1) - 11y

Step 2: Solve for y

1. Distribute:                              3y - 6 + 12 - 8y < 18y - 6 - 11y
2. Combine like terms:              -5y + 6 < 7y - 6
3. Add 5y to both sides:           6 < 12y - 6
4. Add 6 to both sides:             12 < 12y
5. Isolate y:                                 1 < y
6. Rewrite:                                  y > 1

Here we see that any number y greater than 1 would work as a solution.
