Graph the solution on the number line |x-3| <5

-2<x<8

see below for graph

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to solve the inequality.

Inequality: |x-3|<5

Split into two equations:

x-3<5

x-3>-5 (notice how the sign is flipped when we make the number negative)

let's start with x-3<5

add 3 to both sides

x<8

now

x-3>-5

add 3 to both sides

x>-2

The graph is below

the intersection is the solution.

Notice how I made the maroon line go to the right- which shows that it's greater than (for x>-2) and the silver line go to the left, which shows that it's less than (for x<8)

the equation is -2<x<8

Hope this helps!
