Question

Choose the correct description of the graph of the compound inequality

x - 1≤ 9 or 2x ≥ 24

Answer 1

A number line with an open circle on 10, shading to the left, and an open circle on 12, shading to the right.

A number line with an open circle on 10, an open circle on 12, and shading in between.

A number line with a closed circle on 10, a closed circle on 12, and shading in between.

A number line with a closed circle on 10, shading to the left, and a closed circle on 12, shading to the right.

Answer 2

Solve each inequality separately and then form the union of the two solutions for the solution to the compound inequality.

x - 1≤ 9 or 2x ≥ 24

x ≤ 10 or x ≥ 12

The graph will be all numbers less than or equal to 10 as well as all numbers greater than or equal to 12.
