To solve the inequality -2x + 8 + 5x > -10, you need to simplify it and find the solution for x.

Let's start by combining like terms:
3x + 8 > -10

Next, we can isolate x by subtracting 8 from both sides of the inequality:
3x > -10 - 8
3x > -18

Finally, we divide both sides of the inequality by 3 to solve for x:
x > -18/3
x > -6

So, the solution to the inequality -2x + 8 + 5x > -10 is x > -6.

The shading in this case should be to the right of -6 on a number line. Since the inequality is "x > -6", the solution includes all values greater than -6 but does not include -6 itself. Therefore, the point at -6 should be an open circle to indicate that it is not part of the solution set.
