Solve the inequality and graph the solution.
b
–
2
–1≥1
To draw a ray, plot an endpoint and select an arrow. Select an endpoint to change it from closed to open. Select the middle of the ray to delete it.
The given inequality is:
b - 2 - 1 ≥ 1
Simplifying the inequality:
b - 3 ≥ 1
Adding 3 to both sides:
b ≥ 4
The solution to the inequality is b ≥ 4.
To graph the solution, we draw a ray to the right of 4 on the number line to represent all values of b that are greater than or equal to 4.
The graph should show a closed circle at 4 and an arrow extending to the right.
