1. **State the problem:** Solve and graph the inequality $$10 \geq \frac{m}{10} + 12$$.
2. **Write the inequality:** $$10 \geq \frac{m}{10} + 12$$.
3. **Isolate the variable term:** Subtract 12 from both sides:
$$10 - 12 \geq \frac{m}{10} + 12 - 12$$
$$-2 \geq \frac{m}{10}$$
4. **Multiply both sides by 10 to solve for $m$:**
$$10 \times (-2) \geq 10 \times \frac{m}{10}$$
$$-20 \geq m$$
5. **Rewrite the inequality:**
$$m \leq -20$$
6. **Interpretation:** The solution is all values of $m$ less than or equal to $-20$.
7. **Graphing:** Since the inequality is $m \leq -20$, we use a closed circle at $-20$ and shade to the left.
**Final answer:** Option 3: closed circle at -20 with shading to the left.
