x - 5 < 3
Add 5 to both sides.
x < 8
So x is less than 8. Since this range does not include 8 itself, draw an open circle at 8 (as opposed to a filled circle) and extend the line to the left to indicate smaller values. Make sure the number line includes zero so you can identify the positive and negative directions.

Check the answers for the previous question that you posted and apply the same logic.
