Answer 1

The correct graph that represents elevations above 6 meters would be:

A number line with an open circle at positive 6 and a shaded arrow to the right.

The open circle at 6 indicates that 6 meters is not included, and the shaded arrow to the right shows that the elevation is greater than 6 meters.
