Math Problem Statement

Graph each inequality on a separate number line

Graph each inequality on a separate number line

Solution

It looks like you've uploaded an image with a mathematical expression that seems to be part of a graphing inequalities problem. The expression appears to be:

x55x - 5 \geq 5

Let’s solve and graph this inequality step by step:

1. Solve the Inequality:

We will isolate xx in the inequality x55x - 5 \geq 5.

  1. Add 5 to both sides: x5+55+5x - 5 + 5 \geq 5 + 5 x10x \geq 10

So, the solution is x10x \geq 10.

2. Graph on a Number Line:

  • Draw a number line.
  • Put a closed dot (●) at 10, because the inequality includes 10 (x10x \geq 10).
  • Shade the number line to the right of 10, since we are looking for values of xx that are greater than or equal to 10.

If you would like me to generate a visual number line graph for this inequality, let me know!

Would you like further details on the graphing process, or do you have any questions?

Here are 5 related questions for further practice:

  1. What changes in the graph if the inequality was x>10x > 10 instead of x10x \geq 10?
  2. How do you graph x8x \leq 8 on a number line?
  3. What would the solution be for x+312x + 3 \leq 12?
  4. How do you solve and graph 2x7<92x - 7 < 9?
  5. How do you handle graphing inequalities with a negative coefficient, like 3x6-3x \leq 6?

Tip: When graphing inequalities, a closed dot is used for inequalities with "greater than or equal to" (≥) or "less than or equal to" (≤), while an open dot is used for strict inequalities like >> or <<.
