A number line with arrows at both the ends ranges from negative 10 to 10 in unit increments. A closed circle is marked on the tick line above 1. A line is drawn from 1 toward 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.

The description of the number line indicates that there is a closed circle at 1 and a line extending towards 10 with an arrow.
The closed circle at 1 means that 1 is included in the solution set, which is represented by the symbol "≥". The fact that the line extends towards 10 indicates that x can take any value greater than or equal to 1.
Thus, the correct linear inequality represented on the number line is:
\[ x \geq 1 \]
