For this case we have the following inequality:

$y - 2 \ \textless \ -5$
We will solve the inequality algebraically.
We have then:
We add 2 to both sides of the inequality:

$y - 2 + 2 \ \textless \ -5 + 2$
Rewriting we have:

$y \ \textless \ - 3$
Therefore the solution is:
(-inf, -3)
Answer:
(-inf, -3)
