2b < 10

b < 5

How to draw it:

1. Draw a hollow point on number "5"

2. Draw a small vertical line on the top of the point.

3. Draw a long honrizontal line from that vertical line to the left to the end, and add an arrow.

First divide 2 to both sides to isolate b. Since 2 is being multiplied by b, division (the opposite of multiplication) will cancel 2 out (in this case it will make 2 one) from the left side and bring it over to the right side.

2b ÷ 2 < 10 ÷ 2

1b < 5

b < 5

For the graph will you have a empty or colored in circle?

If the symbol is ≥ or ≤ then the circle will be colored in. This represents that the number the circle is on is included.

If the symbol is > or < then the circle will be empty. This represents that the number the circle is on is NOT included.

Which direction will the ray go?

If the variable is LESS then the number then the arrow will go to the left of the circle.

If the variable is MORE then the number then the arrow will go to the right of the circle.

In this case your inequality is:

b < 5

aka b is less then five

This means that the graph will have an empty circle and the arrow will go to the left of 5.

The graph is in the image below:

Hope this helped!
