Math Problem Statement
Graph the solution of the system of linear inequalities: -2 ≤ x < 3
Solution
The system of linear inequalities given is:
This inequality represents all values of that are between and , including but not including . To graph this on a number line:
- Place a closed circle at to indicate that is included in the solution set.
- Place an open circle at to indicate that is not included in the solution set.
- Shade the region between and to show all the values that satisfy the inequality.
This visually demonstrates that any in the interval is a solution.

Here are 5 related questions to expand on this information:
- How would the graph change if the inequality were ?
- What is the difference between an open and a closed circle on a number line?
- How would you write the interval notation for this solution set?
- How can this inequality be represented on a coordinate plane instead of a number line?
- What would the graph look like if the inequality were and ?
Tip: When graphing inequalities, remember that a closed circle means the endpoint is included (≤ or ≥), while an open circle means it is not included (< or >).
