question
solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided.
3x + 9 ≥ -15
answer attempt 1 out of 2
< > ≤ ≥ or
inequality notation:
number line:

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 9 from both sides

$$3x+9 - 9\geq - 15-9$$
$$3x\geq - 24$$

Step2: Divide both sides by 3

$$\frac{3x}{3}\geq\frac{-24}{3}$$
$$x\geq - 8$$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: \(x\geq - 8\)

For the number - line: Place a closed circle at \(-8\) (because the inequality is \(\geq\)) and shade to the right of \(-8\) on the number - line.
