Answer:

x>1

Explanation:

In order to do this, we can take the inequality:

3+2x>5

now there are constants on both sides meaning we can combine them like the following:

3+2x>5

-3 -3

------------

2x>2

Now we can simplify

2x/2>2/2

therefore, the answer is x>1

In order to graph this on a line you would need to put in a circle which is not filled in because x isn't equal to and greater than 1 so we put in a blank circle and since x is always going to be greater than 1, we would put a line that keeps going on.

You would put this line to the right of 1

o----------->

1 2 3 4 5 6

that is how the line would look like
