Step 1
We need to first solve for x. Add 8 e a c h s i d e o f t h e e q u a l i t y s o l v e f or while keeping the inequality balanced:
x - 8 + 8 > 4 + 8
x - 0 > 12
To graph this we will draw a vertical line at 12 on the horizontal axis.
The line will be a dashed line because the inequality operator does not contains an "or equal to" clause. Therefore, the line is not part of the solution set.
