A number line ranges from negative 10 to 10 with numbers listed in unit increments. A closed point is plotted on the number line at 5 start fraction 2 over 3 end fraction. A leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the closed circle and goes beyond negative 10.

The correct answer is: "A number line ranges from negative 10 to 10 with numbers listed in unit increments. A closed point is plotted on the number line at 7.5. A leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the closed circle and goes beyond negative 10."
The correct answer is: "A number line ranges from negative 10 to 10 with numbers listed in unit increments. A closed point is plotted on the number line at 5/(2/3). A leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the closed circle and goes beyond negative 10."
Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
To solve the inequality 2/3x ≤ 5, we need to multiply both sides of the inequality by 3/2 to isolate x.
(2/3)x * (3/2) ≤ 5 * (3/2)
(x * 1) ≤ 15/2
x ≤ 15/2
So, the correct graph should show a closed point at 15/2 on the number line, with a leftward arrow indicating the solution going beyond negative 10.
