Question

solve for x and graph the solution on the number line below. 3 < x - 5 answer attempt 1 out of 2 < > ≤ ≥ or inequality notation: number line: -12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 click and drag to plot line.

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate x

Add 5 to both sides of the inequality $3 < x - 5$.
$3+5

Step2: Simplify

$8 < x$ which can also be written as $x>8$.

Answer:

$>$; $x > 8$; On the number - line, there should be an open circle at 8 and the line should be shaded to the right of 8.
