Inequalities: Graphing on a Number Line

Front

What symbol is used for an open dot when graphing an inequality?

Back

<, >

Front

What symbols are used for a closed dot when graphing an inequality?

Back

≤, ≥

Front

Match the graph with its inequality: a ≥ 11

Back

The graph shows a closed dot at 11 and shading to the right.

Front

What are two numbers that could be x in x < 8?

Back

0.8, 5.9

Front

What inequality does the number line graph represent if it has a closed dot at -5 and shading to the right?

Back

x ≥ -5

Front

What does the inequality x > 3 mean?

Back

x is any number greater than 3.

Front

How do you represent the inequality x ≤ 4 on a number line?

Back

A closed dot at 4 and shading to the left.

Front

What is the difference between < and ≤?

Back

< means 'less than' and does not include the number, while ≤ means 'less than or equal to' and includes the number.

Front

If a graph shows an open dot at 6 and shading to the left, what is the inequality?

Back

x < 6

Front

What does the inequality a < 11 represent on a number line?

Back

All numbers less than 11.
