Solve each inequality and graph the solution set on a number line. \(3 x+3<18\)

Short Answer

Expert verified
The solution set is \(x < 5\). On the number line, all numbers less than 5 are included in the solution set, any position less than 5 is marked with an open circle.

Step by step solution

01

Simplify the inequality

Firstly, attempt to simplify the inequality by subtracting 3 from both sides. Doing this, you have \(3x < 18 - 3\), simplifying it further gives \(3x < 15\)
02

Isolate x

Next, to isolate 'x', divide every term by 3. So, \(x < \frac{15}{3}\). It simplifies to \(x < 5\)
03

Draw the number line

Draw a line, representing numbers. Create markers for values less than 5. Since x is strictly less than 5 (not equal to 5), draw an open circle at 5
