Choose the correct description of the graph of the compound inequality x - 3 < -11 or x + 5 > 14. A number line with a closed circle on -8, shading to the left, and an open circle on 9, shading to the right. A number line with an open circle on -8, a closed circle on 9, and shading in between. A number line with an open circle on -8, shading to the left, and a closed circle on 9, shading to the right. A number line with a closed circle on -8, an open circle on 9, and shading in between.
x - 3 < -11 or x + 5 > 14. Add 3 to both sides Subract 5 from both sides x - 3 < -11 or x + 5 > 14. x < -8 OR x > 9 @lonelyflowers You want to shade all numbers on the line to the left of -8. Then, shade all numbers to the right of +9. Hollows on -8 and 9. Do check this work.
And, let me know what you think is the correct answer, okay?
