To write the inequality represented on a number line, you need to first observe the details of the graph, such as:

  1. The position of the point (if there is a specific point marked).
  2. Whether the point is open (not including the point) or closed (including the point).
  3. The direction of shading (to the left or to the right), indicating which values of \( x \) are included.

For example:

  • If there's a closed dot at 3 and shading to the right, the inequality would be \( x \geq 3 \).
  • If there’s an open dot at 5 and shading to the left, the inequality would be \( x < 5 \).

If you provide me with a description or details about the number line, I can help you formulate the correct inequality!
