Step-by-step explanation

-The first statement is FALSE because there is a closed circle, thus the equation should be x ≥ 6

-In the second line, we should isolate x from the inequality -4x - 9 < -29

Adding +9 to both sides:

-4x < -29 + 9

Adding numbers:

-4x < -20

Dividing both sides by -4 and reversing:

x > 20/4

Simplifying:

x > 5

Thus, the inequality is x>5

--> The second statement is TRUE

-The third statement is also TRUE because the number line already includes the number -5 as a possible solution.

-The number line D is also TRUE.
