Answer:

D

Explanation:

That inequality being talked about is


K>-3(1)/(4)

Note that:
-3(1)/(4)= -3.25

The inequality is:
K>-3(1)/(4)

This means that the inequality includes all values of the number line that are less than -3.25 or that are to the left of -3.25

Note that the number -8.4 is less than -3.25, because it is to its left on the number line.

Then the correct statement is:

The number -8.4 is a solution to the inequality because -8.4 is located to the left of -3.25 on the number line.
