    To figure out which value of y makes this true, plug in each option:

    y = 8

    25 - y < 15 Plug in 8 for y

    25 - 8 < 15

    17 < 15 This is false because 17 is not less than 15

    y = 9

    25 - y < 15 Plug in 9 for y

    25 - 9 < 15

    16 < 15 This is false because 16 is not less than 15

    y = 10

    25 - y < 15 Plug in 10 for y

    25 - 10 < 15

    15 < 15 This is false because 15 can't be less than itself (15)

    y = 11

    25 - y < 15 Plug in 11 for y

    25 - 11 < 15

    14 < 15 This is true because 14 is less than 15
