Use the image to answer the question.
A number line ranges from negative 10 to 10 with numbers listed in unit increments. A closed circle is plotted on the number line at negative 2. A leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the closed circle and goes beyond negative 10.
The number line shows the solution of which of the following inequalities?
(1 point)
x < -2
x >/= -2
the closed circle means -2 is included
The number line shows the solution of the inequality x ≤ -2.
Based on the image provided, we can determine that the closed circle plotted at -2 indicates that -2 is included in the solution set. The leftward arrow marked on the number line indicates that the solution set extends beyond -10.
To determine the inequality represented by this number line, we need to determine the range of values that satisfy the conditions given. In this case, the range of values includes -2 and goes to the left without any specific limit.
The inequality symbol that represents this range of values is ≥ (greater than or equal to). So, the inequality represented by the number line is x ≥ -2.
