I think it's the  2nd one

anonymous · Answer

do you know when to use open circle and when to use closed one?

anonymous · Answer

it is not the second one
the shading is right, but you do not want the stuff between -8 and 9

anonymous · Answer

Open=Greater or less then
Clossed= greater and equal to and less then and equal to.

anonymous · Answer

you have $x<-8$ so everything to the left of -8 
and open circle because of the $<$ 
also $x\geq 9$ so everything to the right of 9, because it means "x is greater than or equal to 9"

anonymous · Answer

yes you are right about open and closed circle, but you want everything to the left of -8 or to the right of 9, not what is in between

anonymous · Answer

3rd one?

anonymous · Answer

yes
