Answer:
So our answer is
Now let's graph the solution set
Start with the given inequality:
Set up a number line:
Now plot the point
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
as the boundary.This means we shade everything to the right of the point
like this:
Graph of
with the shaded region in blue
note: at the point
, there is an
open circle. This means the point
is excluded from the solution set.
