Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

First, we'll mark on the axis the expression b < 0

-3-3-3-2-2-2-1-1-1000111-4-4-4-5-5-5-6-6-6-7-7-7

Then we'll mark on the axis the expression b > -6

-3-3-3-2-2-2-1-1-1000111-4-4-4-5-5-5-6-6-6-7-7-7

We'll mark in orange the segment representing the requested expression:

-3-3-3-2-2-2-1-1-1000111-4-4-4-5-5-5-6-6-6-7-7-7

0 > b > -6

Answer

0 > b > -6
