Step-by-step explanation:

We would insert the values of x in the inequality. If the result is true, then the value of x makes it true

-5x + 3 > -17

if x = -3

-5(-3) + 3 > -17

15 + 3 > -17

18 > -17 (true)

if x = -2

-5(-2) + 3 > -17

10 + 3 > -17

13 > -17 (true)

if x = 0

-5(0) + 3 > -17

0 + 3 > -17

3 > -17 ( true)

if x = 4

-5(-3) + 3 > -17
