1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to find the graph that represents the solution to the inequality 5+8x<3(2x+4)5 + 8x < 3(2x+4).

2. Solution Steps

First, we need to solve the inequality for xx.
5+8x<3(2x+4)5 + 8x < 3(2x+4)
5+8x<6x+125 + 8x < 6x + 12
8x6x<1258x - 6x < 12 - 5
2x<72x < 7
x<72x < \frac{7}{2}
x<3.5x < 3.5
Now, we look for the graph that represents x<3.5x < 3.5. This means we need a number line with an open circle at 3.5, and the arrow should point to the left (towards smaller values).
Option A has a closed circle at a negative value, so it is incorrect.
Option B has an open circle at 3.5 and the arrow points left. This is a possible solution.
Option C has an open circle at 4, so it is incorrect.
Option D is a number line but doesn't have an open or closed circle and an arrow so it is incorrect.
Therefore, option B is the correct solution.

3. Final Answer

B
