Question 158304
t < -3

I guess what you are trying to say is: Graph the inequality t < -3 on the number line.


To graph this inequality, draw a number line.


Go to -3.

Circle -3 ON THE LINE ITSELF.


And shade to the left of -3.

What the inequality is saying basically is that the value of t can be any number less than BUT NOT INCLUDING -3.  This is why we circle -3, in this case.


<--------(-3)------(-2)---------(-1)----------(0)--------(1)-------(2)--->

Draw this line on your paper and SHADE the section to the left of -3.

Is this clear?
