To solve the inequality x ≤ 120, we need to represent all the values of x that are less than or equal to 120.
To graph the solution on a number line, we draw a line with an arrow on the right side to represent all the possible values.
Number line:
----------------------------120=>------------------------
On this number line, all the points to the left side of or on the point 120 satisfy the inequality x ≤ 120.
In terms of the situation, this means that any value of x that is less than or equal to 120 is a valid solution. For example, if x represents a person's age, then any age less than or equal to 120 years old would satisfy this inequality.
Solve this inequality and graph the solution on a number line. Explain what
your solution means in terms of the situation. x ≤ 120
