Question

A number line with arrows at both the ends ranges from negative 10 to 10 in unit increments. A closed circle is marked on the tick line above 1. A line is drawn from 1 toward 10 with an arrow at the end.
What linear inequality is shown graphed on the number line? Make sure to write your inequality so that x
comes first.

Note: You

Answer 1

The number line you described shows a closed circle at 1, indicating that 1 is included in the solution, and a line extending toward 10 with an arrow, indicating that the values greater than 1 are included in the solution but not including 10.

This can be expressed as the inequality:

\[ x \geq 1 \]

So, the linear inequality that is graphed on the number line is \( x \geq 1 \).
