Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter D

Explanation:

The interval graph is (5, 9] , open five, nine close. As an inequality this interval is:

5 < x ≤ 9

a) Letter A is incorrect because it suggests that two sections in the graph must be shaded and in this graph there is only one section shaded.

b) Letter B is incorrect because in the graph we observe that before 5 there must be a parenthesis because the point is open and the point in 9 is shaded so it must be follow by a ].

c) Letter c is alos incorrect because it suggests two sections shaded in the graph and it shows only one.
