Question

The solution to an inequality is (–∞, 6.5]. Is 6.5 a solution to the inequality? Explain your answer. The solution includes numbers from negative infinity to 6.5. Because a bracket is used, the solution does not include 6.5. The solution includes numbers from 6.5 to infinity. Because a parenthesis is used, the solution does not include 6.5. The solution is the point (–∞, 6.5). Because a bracket is used, 6.5 is a solution to the inequality. The solution includes numbers from negative infinity to 6.5. Because a bracket is used, the solution includes 6.5.

Answer 1

Answer:

Because a bracket is used, the solution includes $6.5$

The solution includes numbers from negative infinity to $6.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the solution for an inequality is (–∞, 6.5]

then

$x\leq 6.5$

The solution is all real numbers less than or equal to $6.5$

so

Because a bracket is used, the solution includes $6.5$

The solution includes numbers from negative infinity to $6.5$

Answer 2

The solution includes numbers from negative infinity to 6.5. Because a bracket is used, the solution includes 6.5.
