A) A number line ranges from 5 to 15 in increments of 1. An open point is plotted at 11. An arrow extends indefinitely right from the open point past 15 along the number line.

The correct graph for the inequality \( x > 11 \) is:
A) A number line ranges from 5 to 15 in increments of 1. An open point is plotted at 11. An arrow extends indefinitely right from the open point past 15 along the number line.
This is because the inequality \( x > 11 \) means that \( x \) can take any value greater than 11, but not including 11 itself (hence the open point at 11). The arrow extending to the right indicates that the values go infinitely beyond 11.
