-\left(y-1\right)<9
Multiply both sides of the equation by 3. Since 3 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
-y-\left(-1\right)<9
To find the opposite of y-1, find the opposite of each term.
-y+1<9
The opposite of -1 is 1.
-y<9-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-y<8
Subtract 1 from 9 to get 8.
y>-8
Divide both sides by -1. Since -1 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
