Math Problem Statement

hvad er svaret?

Hvilken ulighed passer til tegningen? (a) -3 ≤ x ≤ 2, b) -3 < x < 2, c) -3 < x ≤ 2, d) -3 ≤ x < 2

Solution

In the image, we are asked to identify the correct inequality that matches the number line diagram. Let's break it down:

  1. Closed circle on -3: This indicates that the value at -3 is included in the solution set. Therefore, x3x \geq -3 (or x3x \leq -3) should be part of the inequality.

  2. Open circle on 2: This indicates that the value at 2 is not included in the solution set, so x<2x < 2 should be part of the inequality.

Thus, the solution is the inequality that includes 3x<2-3 \leq x < 2, since the value of xx can be equal to -3 but less than 2.

Answer: The correct inequality is (d) 3x<2-3 \leq x < 2.

Here are 5 related questions to expand your understanding:

  1. What is the difference between an open and a closed circle on a number line?
  2. How do you graph inequalities on a number line?
  3. What does it mean when an inequality includes "less than" or "greater than" without "equal to"?
  4. Can you give an example of a compound inequality and solve it?
  5. How would this inequality change if the open circle were on -3 and the closed circle on 2?

Tip: Always remember, a closed circle on a number line means the value is included (≤ or ≥), while an open circle means it is not (< or >).
