Answer:All these are equivalent, valid answers:

y < -12

all real numbers less than - 12:

( - ∞ , - 12)

y < - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Starting pointL inequality (1/2)y + 6 < 0

2) subtract 6 from both sides:

(1/2)y + 6 - 6 < 0 - 6

(1/2) y < - 6

3) multiply both sides by 2:

(2)(1/2)y < - (2) (6)

y < -12

4) That is all real numbers less than - 12:

Equivalent to ( - ∞ , - 12) or y ∈ R
