Graph.

x≤7
To draw a ray, plot an endpoint and select an arrow. Select an endpoint to change it from closed to open. Select the middle of the ray to delete it.

To graph the inequality x7, follow these steps:

  1. Draw the Number Line: Draw a horizontal line that represents the number line.

  2. Plot the Point: Find the point 7 on the number line and mark it.

  3. Use a Closed Dot: Since the inequality includes (less than or equal to), place a closed dot at 7 to indicate that this point is included in the solution set.

  4. Draw the Ray: From the closed dot at 7, draw a ray that extends to the left (toward smaller numbers) forever. This reflects all values x that are less than or equal to 7.

  5. Check the Arrow: At the end of the ray, ensure there is an arrow pointing left to indicate that the solution continues infinitely in that direction.

Summary of Key Points for the Graph:

  • Closed dot at 7 (indicating 7 is included).
  • Ray extending to the left of 7.

This creates a visual representation of the solution to the inequality x7.
