9. Example 1 Solve an Inequality Solve y + 5 > 11. Check your solution. y + 5>11Write the inequality. y + 5 >11 Subtract 5 from each side. - 5 - 5 y>6Simplify.

10. Example 1 Solve an Inequality Solve y + 5 > 11. Check your solution. To check your solution, first check the solution and then try any number greater than 6. Check #1 y + 5=11 Write the inequality with an equal sign. Answer: The solution is y > 6. 7 + 5>11 Replace y with 7. 12>11 This statement is true. 6 + 5 =11 Replace y with 6. 11=11 This statement is true. Check #2 y + 5 >11 Write the inequality.

11. Example 1 A.x < 22 B.x < 4 C.x < –4 D.x > 4 Solve x + 9 < 13.
