Answer:

b > 3, or D.

Explanation:

Solve for b to get the equation of the inequality.

12b - 15 > 21

Add 15 to both sides.

12b > 36

Divide both sides by 12.

b > 3

Since it is greater than and not greater than and equal to, the initial dot will not be circled, which makes it either C or D.

Since it is greater than 3, it means it will be all values to the right of 3, which makes the answer D.
