Solution Steps

To determine whether each value of \( y \) is a solution to the inequality \(-47 > -9y + 7\), we will substitute each value of \( y \) into the inequality and check if the inequality holds true. If it does, then the value is a solution; otherwise, it is not.

Step 1: Substitute \( y = 1 \)

For \( y = 1 \): \[ -9(1) + 7 = -9 + 7 = -2 \] Now check the inequality: \[ -47 > -2 \quad \text{(False)} \] Thus, \( y = 1 \) is not a solution.

Step 2: Substitute \( y = 6 \)

For \( y = 6 \): \[ -9(6) + 7 = -54 + 7 = -47 \] Now check the inequality: \[ -47 > -47 \quad \text{(False)} \] Thus, \( y = 6 \) is not a solution.

Step 3: Substitute \( y = 10 \)

For \( y = 10 \): \[ -9(10) + 7 = -90 + 7 = -83 \] Now check the inequality: \[ -47 > -83 \quad \text{(True)} \] Thus, \( y = 10 \) is a solution.

Step 4: Substitute \( y = -6 \)

For \( y = -6 \): \[ -9(-6) + 7 = 54 + 7 = 61 \] Now check the inequality: \[ -47 > 61 \quad \text{(False)} \] Thus, \( y = -6 \) is not a solution.

Final Answer

The values of \( y \) that are solutions to the inequality are:

  • \( y = 10 \) is a solution.
  • \( y = 1, 6, -6 \) are not solutions.

Thus, the final answer is: \[ \boxed{y = 10} \]
