Hey @nataliaviruet - this looks like your test, no? This is against our Code of Conduct - if you want help on how to do a problem, that's fine - but don't post your entire assignment and expect people to do it for you, thanks!

Answer 4

break it into 2 inequalities
-13 > -5x + 2 and -5x + 2 > -28
-13-2 > -5x +2-2 -5x > -30
-15 > -5x -5x/(-5) < (-30)/(-5)
3<x x < 6
x>3
Combine the 2 solutions , you'll get 3<x<6
Mark answer on the number line
Since it is 'greater than' the 'circle' should not be blacken
Perhaps you can try to draw the number line now?

Answer 5

Btw, that's a GREAT answer Callisto - way to go! I like that you helped START the problem, but allowed the asker to understand and then finish it. Great work @Callisto

Answer 6

your od son
