Answer:
14. F -3.5 ≤ x
15. D x > -5
16. E -2 > x
Explanation:
If the circle is open, the inequality will not include the "or equal to" case. That is, the symbol will be < or >. If the circle is a solid dot, then the symbol will be ≤ or ≥.
When shading is to the right, the variable values are greater than the limit. When shading is to the left, variable values are less than the limit.
___
14. The limit is -3.5, and the dot is solid. The expression will be ...
x ≥ -3.5 or -3.5 ≤ x . . . . . matches choice F

15. The limit is -5, and the dot is open. The expression will be ...
x > -5 or -5 < x . . . . . matches choice D
__
16. The limit is -2, and the dot is open. The expression will be ...
x < -2 or -2 > x . . . . . matches choice E
