first ask yourself: is the endpoint a closed circle? or an open circle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its A y+5>-2 -5 -5 ----------- y > -7

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yep, you start by asking yourself if it's open or closed in this case, it's open the shading is to the right of -7, so we have y > -7 the only inequality that solves to y > -7 is choice A

So the correct answer is A?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes, you are correct. Nice work
