To describe a number line for the inequality 12x - 4 < 56, we can follow these steps:
Step 1: Solve the inequality for x:
12x - 4 < 56
Add 4 to both sides:
12x < 60
Divide both sides by 12:
x < 5
Step 2: Draw a number line and mark the point 5 with an open circle (since it is not included in the solution).
–∞ o–––––––> 5
Step 3: Shade the region to the left of the open circle to represent all values of x that satisfy the inequality.
–∞ o–––––––> 5
