The number line which shows the solution is option D

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation todetermine the number line

11x + 14 < -8

collect like terms:

11x < -8 - 14

11x < -22

Divide both sides by 11:

11x/11 < -22/11

x < -2

This means on the number line, the circle will start from -2 towards the ngative x axis. The circle will be open due to the less sign

The number line which shows the solution is option D
