Solve and graph 5x - 12 > 8 I know it's x > 4 but i'm not sure which graph it is :c

the difference is that the position where the line starts is included once (filled point) and excluded the other time (empty point)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

should 4 be included in x > 4 ?

OpenStudy (08surya):

x>4 there is no sign of equal so we dont have to include 4 so at 4 there is whole

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be the second graph?

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

quick lesson : if it contains an equal sign, it will have a closed circle if there is no equal sign, it will have an open circle (<) less then means shading to the left (>) greater then means shading to the right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 should not be included because x is strictly greater than 4

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

OpenStudy (08surya):
