Question

which number line is the solution to 5x - 3 _> 17

Answer 1

Answer:

x ≥ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to solve the inequality:

5x - 3 ≥ 17

5x ≥ 20

x ≥ 4

I'm assuming its the last answer that's not shown in the pic because the others are incorrect. You are looking for a line that starts on 4 with a shaded circle that is going right.

Answer 2

Answer: Option B x ≥ 4

Step 1: move constant to the right-hand side and change it sign

5x ≥17+3

Step 2: add the numbers

5x ≥20

Step 3: divide both sides of the inequality by 5 and you get:
X ≥ 4

Remember when it’s greater than or lesser than, the dot will be shaded.
