The first step for solving this inequality is to move the constant to the right side by adding its opposites to both sides. This will look like the following:
y - 6 + 6 ≥ 12 + 6
Eliminate the opposites on the left side.
y ≥ 12 + 6
Lastly,, add the numbers on the right side together to get your final answer.
y ≥ 18
