A number line ranges from negative 10 to 10 with numbers listed in unit increments. A closed circle is plotted on the number line at negative 2. A leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the closed circle and goes beyond negative 10.

Question

The number line shows the solution of which of the following inequalities?

11+m≥9
m plus 9 greater-than-or-equal-to 11

9+m≤11
9 plus m less-than-or-equal-to 11

9+m≥11
9 plus m is greater than or equal to 11

11+m≤9

Answer 1

9+m≤11

This is because the closed circle plotted on the number line at -2 indicates that -2 is included in the solution set. The leftward arrow going beyond -10 indicates that the inequality is less-than-or-equal-to. So, the solution represented on the number line is 9+m≤11.
