How do you do equations and equalities on a number line
1 answer:
To graph an equation on a number line, You place a point at where the number lies. For example, x=5 would mean that you place a point on 5 and not draw a line.
To graph an inequality on a number line, if depends if it is <, >, ≤, or ≥ . If it is ≤, it is a closed point on the number and a line moving to the left of the number. If it is a ≥, then it is a closed point on the number with a continuous line to the right. If it is a <, it is an open point on the number with a line going to the left. If it is a >, then it is an open point going to the right.
I'll attach a photo to show you what it looks like! :) Hope this helps! :)

P(x, y) Q(x,y)
P(-2, -1) start at 0. Go to the left two squares, then go down 1 square. mark a point there
Q(2, 4) start at 0. Go to the right two squares, go up 4 squares. mark a point there.
connect two points
make a right triangle
Then use the pythereom
