x>3
add 1 to both sides than divide by 2 and you get x is greater than 3
your graph would be open circle on the 3 going right

Answer:

See photo below

Explanation:

  1. First, start solving it. Add 1 to each side, so it now looks like this: 2x > 6
  2. Divide each side by 2 to cancel out the 2 next to x. It should now look like this: x > 3
  3. Now, look at your options and pick the graph that fits the solved equation. The last option matches the solved equation exactly, so that's the answer.

I hope this helps!
