Let us solve the inequality first


[tex]2(x-1)\ge -12[/tex]


Dividing through by 2 gives


[tex](x-1)\ge -6[/tex]


Grouping like terms gives

[tex]x\ge -6+1[/tex]

This implies that;

[tex]x\ge -5[/tex]

This corresponds to option A in words

If we rewrite as

[tex]-5\le x[/tex]

it will correspond to option C in words

Representing on diagram corresponds to option D (See attachment)


All are correct ways to represent the solution except B.

The correct answer is option B
