Algebra-1

To determine which graph represents “x is less than or equal to 10”, we need to understand what this inequality means and how it is represented on a number line.

 

“x is less than or equal to 10” can be represented as x ≤ 10 means that x includes 10 and all numbers less than 10. On a number line, this is represented by: A line with a closed circle at 10 and shading to the left.

 

To compare the given graphs:

Graph A

There is an open circle at 10 and the shading extends to the right.

This represents x > 10, as it includes all numbers greater than 10 but not 10 itself.

 

Graph B

There is a closed circle at 10 and the shading extends to the right.<...
