The correct answer is:
D) Closed circle on 8, shading to the right.
Explanation:
First we must solve the inequality:
x - 3 ≥ 5
Add 3 to each side:
x - 3 + 3 ≥ 5 + 3
x ≥ 8
To graph this, we want a circle on 8 Since it is "greater than or equal to," 8 is included in the solution set. This means the circle will be closed.
Since it is "greater than," we want the numbers to the right of 8 on the number line.
This means the inequality will be a closed circle and shaded to the right.
