Question

Write the inequality that is represented by the number line below use x as your variable

Answer 1

-4 < x < 2

Explanation:

• -4 is where the first point begins.

-4

• since the point is "open", aka not shaded, it should be "<"

-4 <

• we now have to insert the given variable, x

-4 < x

• the second, ending point, is also "open"

-4 < x <

• the ending point lands on 2

-4 < x < 2

hopefully this answers your question. but a little fyi, this is simply the way i learned it, so it may/may not be what you exactly need :)
