Answer: Choice B

Open circle at 3. Shading to the right

========================================================

Work Shown:

3(8 - 4x) < 6(x - 5)

24 - 12x < 6x - 30

24 + 30 < 6x + 12x

54 < 18x

18x > 54

x > 54/18

x > 3

We use an open circle at 3 to indicate we don't include this endpoint as part of the solution. The solution set is everything larger than 3, so we shade to the right of this open circle.
