Analysis
Compound inequalities are expressions
composed of two or more inequalities connected by the words "and" or
"or." On a number line, when the inequalities are connected by
"and," it represents the intersection of the solution sets of the two
inequalities (i.e., the part where both conditions are satisfied). When the
inequalities are connected by "or," it represents the union of the
solution sets of the two inequalities (i.e., all the parts that satisfy either
condition).
In the given graph, we see a number line that marks the interval from 0 to 5.
This interval includes 0 (represented by a closed dot) and excludes 5
(represented by an open circle). This means that the value of x can be
equal to 0 but not equal to 5, and it can take any number between 0 and
5.
Let's compare...
