Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution.
15 > 4b + 19
plot the endpoints. select an endpoint to change it from closed to open. select the middle of
the segment, ray, or line to delete it.

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 19 from both sides

$$15-19>4b + 19-19$$
$$-4>4b$$

Step2: Divide both sides by 4

$$\frac{-4}{4}>\frac{4b}{4}$$
$$-1>b$$

Answer:

The solution of the inequality is \(b < - 1\). On the number - line, we use an open circle at \(-1\) (since the inequality is strict, \(b
eq - 1\)) and draw a ray to the left of \(-1\) to represent all values of \(b\) that satisfy the inequality.
