Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution. 5 > m - 1 plot the endpoints. select an endpoint to change it from closed to open. select the middle of the segment, ray, or line to delete it.

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate the variable m

Add 1 to both sides of the inequality $5>m - 1$. So, $5+1>m-1 + 1$.
$6>m$ or $m < 6$

Step2: Graph the solution

The inequality $m < 6$ is an open - ended inequality. On the number line, we use an open circle at $m = 6$ (because $m$ cannot equal 6) and draw an arrow to the left to represent all values of $m$ that are less than 6.

Answer:

The solution of the inequality is $m < 6$. On the number line, place an open circle at 6 and draw an arrow to the left.
