Solution Steps

To solve the inequality \( y + 4 \leq -2 \), we need to isolate the variable \( y \). The next logical step is to subtract 4 from both sides of the inequality.

Solution Approach
  1. Begin with the simplified inequality \( y + 4 \leq -2 \).
  2. Subtract 4 from both sides to isolate \( y \).
Step 1: Start with the Simplified Inequality

We start with the simplified inequality: \[ y + 4 \leq -2 \]

Step 2: Subtract 4 from Both Sides

To isolate \( y \), we subtract 4 from both sides of the inequality: \[ y + 4 - 4 \leq -2 - 4 \] This simplifies to: \[ y \leq -6 \]

Final Answer

The solution to the inequality is: \[ \boxed{y \leq -6} \]
