To solve the inequality x - 11 < -3, we need to isolate x.
First, we can add 11 to both sides of the inequality:
x - 11 + 11 < -3 + 11
x < 8
So the solution to the inequality is x < 8.
Graphing this solution on the number line, we place an open circle at the point 8 and draw a ray to the left to indicate that x is less than 8.

-12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12
The solution is represented by the section of the number line that is to the left of the open circle at 8.
Solve for xx and graph the solution on the number line below.
x, minus, 11, is less than, minus, 3
