Answer 4

Or maybe I can expedite this. :-)
If the symbol has an equal component to it, you want a "closed circle" answer.
If the symbol has a "greater than" component to it, then you want a "shading to the left" answer, because values to the left of -5, when multiplied by -2, would give you a value greater than 10.
If the symbol has a "less than" component to it, you want a "shading to the right" answer, so when those values are multiplied by -2, the value is less than 10.
