Use the image to answer the question. The number line shows the speed limit in miles per hour in the town of Pleasantville and on the highway that borders it. Write a statement of order that shows the relation of the in-town speed limit to the highway speed limit.

Since I cannot view images, I can guide you on how to write a statement of order based on typical speed limits.

  1. Identify the speeds: Find the numerical values of the speed limits in town and on the highway from the number line.
  2. Compare the values: Determine which speed limit is higher or lower.
  3. Write the statement: If, for example, the in-town speed limit is 25 mph and the highway speed limit is 55 mph, you would write a statement like: "The in-town speed limit (25 mph) is less than the highway speed limit (55 mph)," or in mathematical terms: "25 mph < 55 mph."

Feel free to provide the numerical values from the number line, and I can help you construct a more specific statement!
