To determine

To solve the equation $4y<20$

Answer to Problem 3E

  $y<5$

Explanation of Solution

Given Information: $4y<20$

Formula Used : Linear inequality with one variable

Calculation:

Given equation is

  $4y<20$

To isolate the variable y, divide by 4 both sides-

  $\frac{4}{4}y<\frac{20}{4}$

This gives

  $y<\frac{20}{4}$

Hence the final answer is,

  $y<5$
