To graph the inequality 10 + 8x > 2 on a number line, we first need to isolate the variable x.
Subtract 10 from both sides:
8x > -8
Divide by 8:
x > -1
Now we can graph this inequality on the number line.
-1 is an open circle because x is not equal to -1. Since x is greater than -1, we shade the number line to the right of -1.
The graph will look like this:
----o---->
Where o represents the open circle at -1 and the arrow points to the right to show that x is greater than -1.
