Solve multi-step inequalities, including reversing the inequality when appropriate.

Solve a multi-step inequality and graph it

Problem

Solve \(5~-~2x~<~17\), reversing the inequality when dividing by the negative coefficient. Then match the solution's endpoint and direction to a graph description. Which graph description matches your solution?

A. Open at \(-6\), shaded right
B. Open at \(-6\), shaded left
C. Closed at \(-6\), shaded right

Graph choices A through C on a common scale: open at negative 6 right, open at negative 6 left, and closed at negative 6 right. Open full size
