Answer:

2nd graph is correct

Explanation:

solve the inequality

- 3x - 7 < 20 ( add 7 to both sides )

- 3x < 27

divide both sides by - 3, reversing the symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity.

x > - 9

since > then open circle at - 9 on the number line

the arrow head will point to the right indicating values > - 9

this is shown on the 2nd graph
