Question

Alfonso graphs the inequality x greater-than negative 8 using the steps below.

Answer 1

Answer:

B-The graph is incorrect. He should have shaded to the right of –8.

Step-by-step explanation:

We examine the steps Alfonso follows in graphing the inequality x > -8.

Step 1: Draw a number line, and place an open circle at –8.

A number line going from negative 13 to negative 3. An open circle is at negative 8.

The first step is correct, since we use an open circle for > or < and a closed circle for $\leq \:or\: \geq$.

Step 2: Shade to the left of –8 to represent the infinite solutions to x greater-than negative 8.

This step is incorrect since values to the left are always less than.

He should have shaded to the right of -8.

The error made is Option B.

CHECK:

x=-7

-7>-8 (TRUE)
