Question

Which inequality has the solution shown on the number line?
x-5≥ 3
x-5>-7
x-3≥ -5
x+8≤ -6
please explain the answer so i get it

Answer 1

the endpoint is solid, so you can rule out B at least

Answer 2

the shading is to the right, so you're going to have a ≥ sign, which rules out D

Answer 3

x-5>-7 this is your answer

Answer 4

to check the other choices, just solve for x in each one

Answer 5

no it's not x-5>-7 because the endpoint is a closed circle (not an open circle)

Answer 6

Ohhh, correct. Didn't notice that.

Answer 7

x-3≥ -5 it has to be this!

Answer 8

so its
x≥ 8
x≥ 2

Answer 9

check the second one you did

Answer 10

-7

Answer 11

wait no 3

Answer 12

x-3≥ -5

x-3+3≥ -5+3

x ≥ ???
