Answer:

true

Explanation:

x
\geq -3, when graphed, is a vertical line which crosses the x-axis at -3

The solution area is then shaded either to the left of that line or to the right

Look at the point (0, -2); the x-coordinate is zero, which is greater than -3

Therefore, if graphing, you would shade the area to the right of the line and every point contained in this area is a solution to x
\geq -3
