Question

A number line going from 0 to 80.

Lita sees a sign that says you must be more than 48 inches tall to ride a roller coaster.

She writes the inequality as h > 48.

How can she graph the solutions of the inequality?
Plot an open circle at 48 and shade left.
Plot a closed circle at 48 and shade left.
Plot an open circle at 48 and shade right.
Plot a closed circle at 48 and shade right.

Answer 1

Yes, the other person is correct!

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Plot an open circle at 48 and shade right.

Step-by-step explanation:

We only use a closed circle for when it is less than/greater than or equal to. Because you have to be taller than 48, we are going to use an open circle. You shade to the right because anything that is bigger than 48 could be an option for h.
