Which number line shows the solution of -4x+ 6> 18?
1 answer:
Consider the below figure attached with this question.
Given:
To find:
The number of line that represents the solution of given inequality.
Solution:
We have,
Subtracting 6 from both sides, we get
If an inequality is multiplied or divide by a negative number, then the sign of inequality must be change.
Divide both sides by -4.
The value of x is less than -3. It means number of the left of -3 are included in the solution set but -3 is not included in the solution set.
So, there is an open circle at x=-3 on the number and an arrow from -3 towards left.
Therefore, the correct option is A.

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line in the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
By definition, if two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal.
We have the following line:
Thus, the slope is:
Then
So, the line is of the form:
We substitute the pointand find b:
Thus, the equation is:
