Graphing Inequalities on a Number Line

Why is it important to have the variable on the left side of the inequality sign?

• It makes the inequality easier to read.

• It helps in solving the inequality faster.

• It simplifies the process of graphing the inequality.

• It is a standard mathematical convention.

What should you do if the variable is on the right side of the inequality sign?

• Solve the inequality first and then rearrange it.

• Rearrange the inequality to put the variable on the left side.

• Leave it as it is.

• Ignore the inequality.

What is the correct rearrangement of the inequality 5 < x?

• 5 > x

• x < 5

• x = 5

• x > 5

• Closed circle

• Equal sign

• Arrow

What type of circle is used for the inequality x ≥ -2?

• No circle

• Half-filled circle

• Closed circle

• Open circle

How do you graph the inequality x < 4 on a number line?

• Open circle at 4 with an arrow to the right

• Closed circle at 4 with an arrow to the left

• Open circle at 4 with an arrow to the left

• Closed circle at 4 with an arrow to the right

What is the correct graph for the inequality x > 0?

• Closed circle at 0 with an arrow to the left

• Open circle at 0 with an arrow to the left

• Closed circle at 0 with an arrow to the right

• Open circle at 0 with an arrow to the right

If an inequality has a 'less than or equal to' symbol, what type of circle should be used?

• Open circle

• Closed circle

• No circle

• Half-filled circle

What is the correct graph for the inequality x ≤ 6?

• Closed circle at 6 with an arrow to the right

• Open circle at 6 with an arrow to the left

• Closed circle at 6 with an arrow to the left

What should you do if you make a mistake while graphing an inequality?

• Erase everything and start over

• Ask someone else to correct it

• Go back and try to find the mistake

• Ignore the mistake and move on
