1. Problem Description
The problem asks to solve the inequality and then to graph the solution set.
2. Solution Steps
First, we multiply both sides of the inequality by 12 (the least common multiple of 3 and 4) to eliminate the fractions:
Now we distribute on the left side:
Next, we subtract from both sides:
Now, we subtract 24 from both sides:
This is equivalent to .
To graph the solution set, we draw a number line. We place an open circle at -18 to indicate that -18 is not included in the solution set. Then, we shade the number line to the left of -18 to indicate all values less than -
