SOLUTION: graph solution set of x>3

Question 98449: graph solution set of x>3

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 not true, we simply shade the entire portion that does not contain the point x=0 using the point x=3 as the boundary. This means we shade everything to the right 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.
