Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution.
12 > 6x - 12
use the points: select an endpoint to change it from closed to open. select the middle of the segment, ray, or line to delete it.

Explanation:

Step1: Add 12 to both sides

$12+12>5x - 12+12$
$24>5x$

Step2: Divide both sides by 5

$\frac{24}{5}>x$
$x < \frac{24}{5}=4.8$

Answer:

The solution of the inequality is $x < 4.8$. On the number - line, you would use an open circle at 4.8 (since the inequality is strict, $x$ cannot equal 4.8) and shade the line to the left of 4.8.
