The correct option is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

First we solve the inequality:

-7x -13 ≥ 8

collect like terms:

-7x ≥ 8 + 13

-7x ≥ 21

Divide through by -7:

x ≤ 21/-7

Note: when you divde an inequality by negative number, the iequality sign changes.

x ≤ -3

Since x is less than or equal to -3, the number line starts at -3 and moves towards the left of the number line.

The correct option is option A
