Question

y - 8 > -6
+8 +8

y > 2

3 is included in the solution set because it makes the inequality true.
next, test values not included in the solution set.
2 > 2 false

y - 8 > -6
2 - 8 > -6 substitute 2 for y.
-6 > -6 ?

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the inequality comparison

We need to determine if \(-6 > -6\) is true or false. By the definition of the "greater than" (\(>\)) relation, a number is not greater than itself. So, \(-6\) is not greater than \(-6\) (it is equal to \(-6\)).

Step2: Conclude the result

Since \(-6\) is equal to \(-6\), the statement \(-6 > -6\) is false.

Answer:

FALSE
