x - 3 < -9                   x + 5 > = 12
x < - 9 + 3                 x > = 12 - 5
x < - 6                       x > = 7

open circle on -6, shaded to the left.....closed circle on 7, shaded to the right

Answer with explanation:

The compound Inequality is:

 1. x -3 < - 9

Adding 3 to both sides

x -3 + 3 < -9 + 3

x < -6

x  ∈ (-∞,-6)

2. x + 5 ≥ 12

Subtracting ,5 from both sides

x +5 -5 ≥ 12 -5

x ≥ 7

x ∈ [7 , ∞)

Combining , solution of inequality 1 and inequality ,2

→→x ∈ (-∞,-6) ∪x ∈ [7 , ∞)

Depicting on the number line ,the solution set

Option C: A number line with an open circle on −6, shading to the left, and a closed circle on 7, shading to the right
