Im not sure how to graph that maybe cwrw238 does I know it's -5 though

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

-3x > 15 divide both sides by -3 and flip the inequality ( because you are dividing by a negative)

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

can you do that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

<-5

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

x < -5 yes

OpenStudy (arbershabani97):

it is not equal and less than so it's closed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

so the solution is all values less than -5 so an open circle goes on the number line at -5 and the shading is on its left

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right
