Answer 2

Answer 3

oh um let me get it:)

Answer 4

Of course.

Answer 5

Okay, so the open circle tells us that it can either be > or <.

The number line also shows a point at -7.

So, we have to find the equation where y > -7

If we take A. y + 5 > -2, we can isolate y by subtracting 5 on both sides.
This should give us y > -7, which is what we were looking for.

So your answer is A. :)
