Question

solve for $x$ and graph the solution on the number line below. $x - 3>9$ answer attempt 1 out of 2 < > ≤ ≥ or inequality notation: number line: -12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate x

Add 3 to both sides of the inequality.
$x - 3+3>9 + 3$

Step2: Simplify

$x>12$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x>12$
To graph on the number - line, draw an open circle at 12 (since 12 is not included in the solution set as the inequality is strict, $x>12$) and draw an arrow to the right of 12 to represent all the numbers greater than 12.
