To find the graph that represents the solutions to the inequality, it is necessary to first simplify the inequality. Starting with 5n - 3 < 3(n + 1), you can distribute the 3 through the parentheses to get 5n - 3 < 3n + 3.
To solve this inequality, you need to isolate the variable on one side of the inequality symbol. Begin by subtracting 3n from both sides: 5n - 3 - 3n < 3n + 3 - 3n, which simplifies to 2n - 3 < 3. Next, add 3 to both sides: 2n - 3 + 3 < 3 + 3, resulting in 2n < 6. Finally, divide both sides of the inequality by 2: 2n/2 < 6/2, giving n < 3.
This inequality can be represented on a number line by graphing an open circle at 3 and shading to the left, indicating that n is less than but not equal to 3. Therefore, the correct graph that represents the solution to 5n - 3 < 3(n + 1) is option C.
