graph the compound inequality on the number line.
x > 8 or x < -3

Explanation:

Step1: Identify open - circle points

For $x>8$, we use an open - circle at $x = 8$ because $8$ is not included. For $x<-3$, we use an open - circle at $x=-3$ because $-3$ is not included.

Step2: Shade the regions

For $x>8$, we shade to the right of $8$. For $x < - 3$, we shade to the left of $-3$.

Answer:

On the number line, place an open - circle at $x = 8$ and shade to the right of $8$. Place an open - circle at $x=-3$ and shade to the left of $-3$.
