Question

PLEASE HELP ME, FAST!

Answer the following questions to explain how you would☝️

1) How many dots would you use? Why?
2) What number(s) would the dot(s) be on?
3) Would they be opened or closed dots? How do you know?
4) Where would you shade on the number line? How do you know?​

Answer 1

1) You would use 2 "dots" or points on the number line because it telling you which two points -5+2 is in between.

2) The points would be on -10 and -8 because when the inequality is simplified it becomes -10
`\leq` x < -8.

3) The dot on -10 would be closed because it is saying x is greater than or equal to -10. The dot on -8 is open because it is just saying x is less than -8.

4) You shade the are between the two point ("dots") because the inequality is telling you that x is greater than -10, but less than -8.

Hope this helps!
