To graph the inequality \( x > -2 \):
1. **Identify the boundary point**: The boundary point here is \(-2\).
2. **Determine the type of circle**: Since the inequality is \(>\) (greater than), you use an **open circle** at \(-2\) to indicate that \(-2\) is not included in the solution set.
3. **Shade in the direction of the inequality**: Since \( x \) is greater than \(-2\), you shade to the **right** of \(-2\).
So, the correct option that matches this graph is:
**Start at -2 open circle to the right**.
