this is a weird problem....the graph shows that x is equal or greater then -2. So pick a number greater then -2, like 1, or you could even do -2 because it can be equal to it, and sub it in for x in your answer choices to see which one is correct.

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

typo...the number line shows

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

let me try the first answer choice. Oh, and I will be subbing 1 in for x. x - 5 >= 3 1 - 5 >= 3 -4 >= 3 NOT TRUE. Its not the first one. you give it a try ...

I think its D. DO you think im right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nvm its not D.

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

lets check.. x + 8 >= -6 1 + 8 >= -6 9 >= -6 I do think you right. Good job :)

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

It is D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (texaschic101):
