Starting with the equation 4x - 9 ≥ -21:
Add 9 to both sides to isolate x:
4x ≥ -12
Divide by 4 to solve for x:
x ≥ -3
Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x is equal to or greater than -3.
Representing this on a number line with -3 as a filled in circle (since it is included in the solution):
-3 ----> (-2) ----> (-1) ----> 0 ----> 1 ----> 2 ----> 3 ----> 4 ----> ...
Create a number line that represents the solution of 4x - 9 is equal to or more than -21
