Question

Explain, in complete sentences, when you would use an open circle or a closed circle, and when you would shade to the right or left, to graph an inequality on the number line

Answer 1

you shade the circle if the point is included (when there is \(\ge\) or \(\le\))

you use open circle when it's neither of those (i.e. \(\ne\), < or >)

you shade to the right when x is greater than (i.e. \(\ge\) or >)

you shade to the left when x is less than (i.e. \(\le\) or <)

Answer 2

do you get that?
