Answer 1

To determine which graph represents the temperatures at which fish for sushi can be stored, we need to consider the meaning of the points and the direction of the shading.

1. A **closed circle** indicates that the value (41 in this case) is included in the range.
2. An **open circle** indicates that the value is not included.
3. A **shaded arrow pointing to the left** suggests that temperatures less than or equal to a certain point (41) are included.
4. A **shaded arrow pointing to the right** suggests that temperatures greater than or equal to a certain point (41) are included.

For storing fish for sushi, it is typically required that the storage temperature be at or below 41°F. Therefore, the correct representation would be:

- A **closed circle at 41** (meaning 41°F is included), with a **shaded arrow pointing to the left** (indicating all temperatures below 41°F are included).

Thus, the correct response is:

**A number line with a closed circle at 41 and shaded arrow pointing to the left.**
