Given inequality:

12b - 15 > 21

To find:

The graph for the inequality.

Solution:


12b - 15 > 21

Add 15 on both sides.


12b - 15 +15> 21+15


12b> 36

Divide by 12 on both sides.


$(12b)/(12) >(36)/(12)


b>3

  • Open circle means the value of 3 is not included.
  • Closed circle means the value of 3 included.

Here b is strictly less than 3. so it is open circle.

The image of the graph is attached below.

The solution of the inequality is b > 3.
