It’s c because x + 1 usually equals to x so and it’s going back so it would be c cause of negative-5

Answer: A

Explanation:

Remember that if it is just < or > and not "less/more than and equal to" it will be an open circle.


Another trick is that > is pointing toward where the arrow should go. it should be A.

You can also solve it by checking what numbers + 1 is greater than 5.
