Question

Solve each inequality and graph the solution :
-3x>15

hintHint:

Linear inequalities are expressions where any two values are compared by the inequality symbols<,>,≤&≥ . When we divide or multiply an inequality by a negative number, the direction of the symbol changes.
We are asked to solve the inequality and graph it.

The correct answer is: x<-5


    Step 1 of 2:
    Rearrange and solve the inequality;
    table attributes columnalign right left right left right left right left right left right left columnspacing 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em end attributes row cell negative 3 x greater than 15 end cell row cell x less than fraction numerator 15 over denominator negative 3 end fraction end cell row cell x less than negative 5 end cell end table
    Step 2 of 2:
    Graph the solution of the inequality;

                                    

    When we have an inequality with the symbols< or > , we use dotted lines to graph them. This is because we do not include the end point of the inequality.

    Solve each inequality and graph the solution :
    6x≥-0.3.

    Note:
    Whenever we use the symbol ≤ or ≥ , we use the endpoint as well. So, we use complete line to graph the solution.
