Question

How do you solve `n>(-3n-15)/8` and graph the solution on a number line?

Answer 1

`n> -\frac{15}{11}`

Explanation:

Multiply both sides by 8 to get
`8n> -3n-15`

Then you can add `3n` to both sides
`11n> -15`

Divide both sides by 11 to get the final answer
`n> -\frac{15}{11}`

To graph it, you find `-\frac{15}{11}` which is about -1.36. and put an open dot because the point does not satisfy the inequality. Then you draw the arrow to the right since it is greater than that point.
