A number line going from 50 to 58. An open circle is at 53. Everything to the right of the circle is shaded.

A number line going from 50 to 58. An open circle is at 54. Everything to the right of the circle is shaded.

A number line going from 50 to 58. A closed circle is at 54. Everything to the right of the circle is shaded.

Bryan is asked to write an inequality to represent the graph.He writes .Which error did Bryan make?

Bryan must write the inequality with the variable on the left side of the relation symbol.

Bryan chose a relation symbol that does not point in the same direction as the ray.

Bryan included –14 in his solution set.

Bryan used the wrong number in his inequality.

The unit price of strawberries at a local fruit stand is $3.29 per pound for quantities of berries indicated in the graph below.Which statement is best supported by the graph?

Customers who buy at least 7 pounds of strawberries pay $3.29 per pound.

Customers who buy more than 7 pounds of strawberries pay $3.29 per pound.

Customers who buy less than 7 pounds of strawberries pay $3.29 per pound.

Liam must determine the inequality represented by the solution set on the number line.Which statement must be true?

The arrow points to the left, so only the or symbol can be used in the inequality.

The solution set includes –7, so only the or symbol can be used in the inequality.

The circle at –7 is open, so only the or symbol can be used in the inequality.

The circle is on a negative number, so only the or symbols can be used in the inequality.

How do the number line graphs of the solutions sets of and differ?

One graph uses an open circle, but the other graph uses a closed circle. Also, the rays use arrows that point in opposite directions, but they have the same endpoint.

They use arrows that point in opposite directions, the rays have different endpoints, and both graphs use open circles.
