A number line with arrows at both ends ranges from negative 10 to 10 in one unit increments. A hollow circle is marked at negative 4. A line with an arrow at the end extends from that circle to the left and goes past negative 10. What inequality does the number line show? Use x for the variable.

NO!! GIVE ME THE ANSWER!!! NOW!!
NO, YOUR SOOO DUMB!!!
Certainly! Here are the steps to determine the correct inequality shown on the number line:
1. Identify the position of the hollow circle on the number line. In this case, it is marked at negative 4.
2. Determine the direction in which the line extends from the hollow circle. Here, it extends to the left.
3. Look at the arrow at the end of the line. If the arrow points to the left, it signifies that the line extends indefinitely in that direction.
4. Write the inequality based on the information gathered. Since the line extends indefinitely to the left from the hollow circle marked at negative 4, the inequality would be x < -4.
