Answer

So, the solution to the inequality is j(13,12] and the graph of the solution is a line segment from -13 (open circle) to -12 (closed circle) on the number line.

Steps

Step 1 :Subtract 12 from all parts of the inequality to isolate j, giving 12j>13.

Step 2 :This inequality tells us that j is greater than -13 and less than or equal to -12.

Step 3 :To graph this solution, draw a number line and mark the points -13 and -12.

Step 4 :Since j is greater than -13 but not equal to -13, draw an open circle at -13.

Step 5 :Since j is less than or equal to -12, draw a closed circle at -12.

Step 6 :Draw a line segment connecting the two circles to represent all the possible values of j.

Step 7 :So, the solution to the inequality is j(13,12] and the graph of the solution is a line segment from -13 (open circle) to -12 (closed circle) on the number line.
