Start with the given inequality:

Set up a number line:

Now plot the point x=3 on the number line

Now pick any test point you want, I'm going to choose x=0, and test the inequality

Plug in

Since this inequality is true, we simply shade the entire portion in which contains the point x=0 using the point x=3 as the boundary.This means we shade everything to the left of the point x=3 like this
Graph of with the shaded region in blue

note: at the point x=3, there is an open circle. This means the point x=3 is excluded from the solution set.
