OpenStudy (phi):

do you see the thick black line? what numbers are those ? what is the smallest number the black line starts with ?

OpenStudy (kalebj):

-2

OpenStudy (phi):

yes, and all numbers bigger than -2 are part of the black line to show that we write x bigger than or equal to -2 using \( \ge \) or \( \le\) we put the "big end" of > next to x (because x is bigger) and the skinny (small end) of > next to -2 (because -2 is the smaller) so \[ x \ge -2\]

OpenStudy (phi):

because the circle at -2 is filled in, -2 is part of the numbers that is why we use \( \ge\) and not >
