Question

for each value of y, determine whether it is a solution to 11 > y.

y	is it a solution?
14	○	○
9	○	○
13	○	○
16	○	○

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze for y = 14

We need to check if \(11>14\). Since \(11\) is less than \(14\) (i.e., \(11 < 14\)), this statement is false. So for \(y = 14\), the answer is No.

Step2: Analyze for y = 9

We check if \(11>9\). Since \(11\) is greater than \(9\) (i.e., \(11>9\) is true), for \(y = 9\), the answer is Yes.

Step3: Analyze for y = 13

We check if \(11>13\). Since \(11\) is less than \(13\) (i.e., \(11 < 13\)), this statement is false. So for \(y = 13\), the answer is No.

Step4: Analyze for y = 16

We check if \(11>16\). Since \(11\) is less than \(16\) (i.e., \(11 < 16\)), this statement is false. So for \(y = 16\), the answer is No.

Answer:

• For \(y = 14\): No
• For \(y = 9\): Yes
• For \(y = 13\): No
• For \(y = 16\): No
