A number line with arrows at both the ends ranges from negative 10 to 10 in unit increments. An open circle is marked on the tick line above 4. A line is drawn from 4 toward negative 10 with an arrow at the end.
What linear inequality is shown graphed on the number line? Make sure to write your inequality so that x
comes first.

Based on the description of the number line, the open circle at 4 indicates that 4 is not included in the solution set. The arrow extending leftward towards negative 10 indicates that all values less than 4 are included.
Therefore, the inequality that is represented by the graph is:
\( x < 4 \)
