Question

The graph of the solution to the inequality -5x - 12 > 3 has an open circle at -3 and is shaded to the left. (4 points)

Answer 1

trrue or false

Answer 2

-5x - 12 > 3 --- add 12 to both sides
-5x > 3 + 12
-5x > 15 -- now divide both sides by 5, and change the inequality sign
x < -3

since there is no equal sign, it is an open circle.....and since it is less then, it is shaded to the left. So.....it is true
