Answer:
The answers are below
Step-by-step explanation:
The greater sign is > and the less then symbol is <
Using the red arrows on the number line, you can tell which one is bigger or less. The dot is colored in so it has to have a line under it. So for the first one (top, left), The red arrow is pointing to the right side meaning x is bigger than 3. Therefore x ≥ 3.
In the next one (top, right) the arrow is pointing to the negative side so that one must be less than 3. The dot is also colored in meaning it is: x ≤ 3
In the next one (bottom, left) the arrow is pointing to the right, the dot not colored in, so it has no line. Therefore it is x > 3
Last one (bottom right) the arrow is pointing left, dot is white meaning that the answer is x < 3
If you're wondering what the open dots and closed dots mean:
An open dot is used to show that the ray's endpoint is not a component of the solution when the inequality is "strict" ( < or >).
A closed dot is used to denote that the endpoint is a component of the solution for the other types of inequalities (≥ and ≤ ).
