Graphing Inequalities on a Number Line

Front

What does the inequality a ≥ 11 represent on a number line?

Back

The graph includes all numbers greater than or equal to 11, with a closed dot at 11 and a line extending to the right.

Front

What does the inequality x ≥ -5 represent on a number line?

Back

The graph includes all numbers greater than or equal to -5, with a closed dot at -5 and a line extending to the right.

Front

What does the inequality b ≤ -2 represent on a number line?

Back

The graph includes all numbers less than or equal to -2, with a closed dot at -2 and a line extending to the left.

Front

What does the inequality x < -4 represent on a number line?

Back

The graph includes all numbers less than -4, with an open dot at -4 and a line extending to the left.

Front

What does the inequality x ≥ 3 represent on a number line?

Back

The graph includes all numbers greater than or equal to 3, with a closed dot at 3 and a line extending to the right.

Front

What is the difference between a closed dot and an open dot on a number line?

Back

A closed dot indicates that the number is included in the solution (≥ or ≤), while an open dot indicates that the number is not included (> or <).

Front

How do you graph the inequality x > 2 on a number line?

Back

Draw an open dot at 2 and shade the line to the right.

Front

How do you graph the inequality x < 0 on a number line?

Back

Draw an open dot at 0 and shade the line to the left.

Front

What does the inequality a < 5 represent on a number line?

Back

The graph includes all numbers less than 5, with an open dot at 5 and a line extending to the left.

Front

What does the inequality b > -3 represent on a number line?

Back

The graph includes all numbers greater than -3, with an open dot at -3 and a line extending to the right.
