The inequality is .

        (Apply distributive property: a (b + c) = ab + ac)

                 (Multiply: )

Apply subtraction property of inequality: Subtract 2y from each side.

Apply commutative property of addition: a + b = b + a.

  (Apply additive inverse property: )

              (Apply additive identity property: )

Since the inequality results a false statement, the solution set is the empty set,.
