Question

Want to be my hero? :D

Answer 1

Please solve each of the inequalities below and graph the solution on a number line. It will be beneficial to you to show work on all problems so your instructor may provide specific feedback. However, to receive full credit for this assignment, you must show work for #4 and 5. You may either use a paint program, power point, or any program you choose to create the number line graphs, draw the graphs by hand and scan, or describe the graph in words. For example, x > 3 would be “x is greater than 3. The graph would have an open circle on 3 with shading to the right.”

#1-5 (1 point each)

1. x – 3 > –9

2. –2x + 1 ≤ –11

3. 10 < –3x + 1

4. 2(x + 5) > 8x – 8

5. –2(x – 3) ≥ 5 – (x + 3)

6. 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. (3 points)

7. Describe a real life scenario where inequalities are used and state the inequality. (2 points)
