Your parents allow you to play video games for no more than 8 hours a week. You have already played for 2.5 hours this week. Write and solve an inequality that represents how much more time you can play video games this week. Graph the solution on a number line.

x + 2.5 ≤ 8

Cannot graph on this post.

Is that the answer or what I have x< =5.5

then i line on a number line half between 4 and 5 going left on a closed circle. Right?

5.5

IT needs to between 5 and 6 because that is 5.5 then comes 6. Right????

To represent the amount of time you can play video games this week, we'll use the variable "x". Since you have already played for 2.5 hours, the remaining time you can play is 8 - 2.5 = 5.5 hours.

The inequality that represents the remaining time you can play video games this week is:
x ≤ 5.5

To graph this on a number line, start by marking a point at 5.5. Then, draw a closed circle at that point to indicate that 5.5 is included in the solution set. Finally, draw an arrow that extends to the left of the number line to show that the value of x can be any number less than or equal to 5.5.

Here is the graph of the solution:
