To know if you did it right, plug in numbers from the number line and then you will see.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or maybe it goes <= that way. Not sure.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which numbers do I plug in? The -5 and -1?

OpenStudy (g_osmenaj):

You can plug in both, but the easiest one would be 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 2(3) +6 = 12?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

anyone?

OpenStudy (g_osmenaj):

My mistake, I meant -3....the reason why is because if we plug in -3 and the inquality comes out as false, then your answer is correct. As you can see in the number line, the arrows do not include -3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so I'm wrong. Okay back to the drawing board.

OpenStudy (g_osmenaj):

Sometimes, it can be 2 inequalities representing the same number line.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My other choices just don't make sense. They don't plug in to the two points on the number line (-5 and -1)
