Fill in the Blank

A workplace safety officer uses the inequality y>x+4y > x + 4 to verify that the number of protective shields (yy) is strictly more than 4 greater than the number of workstations (xx). When checking a workstation configuration represented by the ordered pair (6, 10), the officer simplifies the inequality to the statement $10 > 10. The officer recalls that because the inequality is strict (>), the statement \10 > 10$ is ________, and therefore the configuration is not a solution.
