Step 1
5 - ( x + 4 ) - 3
Distribute the negative sign on the left side:
5 - x - 4 - 3
Simplify:
1 - x - 3
Add x to both sides:
1 - x    +    x - 3    +    x
1 - 3 + x
Aff 3 to both sides:
1    +    3 - 3 + x    +    3
4 x
Therefore,
x 4
The closed circle on 4 means that it is a solution (and anything greater than it is).
