Plot Exclusive Inequalities

Lesson Page 2, Section 3

What you'll work on

Simplify compound inequalities by evaluating both sides, then correctly represent the solution on a number line using open circles for exclusive endpoints.

Big Idea for this lesson

$A soft cream-white painted illustration of a classical number line with two open hollow circles at labeled endpoints and a shaded arc between them — ink-on-parchment style with warm scholarly tones.$

Solve the inequality first — simplify the arithmetic on both sides — then graph it. Open circles at the endpoints mean those values are NOT included in the solution set.
