If you were to graph the inequality below on a number line -6x<18

Would you use an open circle or a closed circle ?

Would your arrow go to the left or the right ?

Respuesta :

An inequality is used to represent unequal expressions.

  • We make use of an open circle
  • The arrow would go right

The inequality is given as:

[tex]-6x < 18[/tex]

Divide both sides by -6

[tex]\frac{-6x}{-6} < \frac{18}{-6}[/tex]

Negative division changes the sign of the inequality.

So, we have:

[tex]x > -3[/tex]

When an inequality uses >, then the graph of the inequality would use an open circle

[tex]x > -3[/tex] represents x is greater than -3; so, the arrow would go right
