Given :-

Given :- Emilia pays $24 to rent a boat at the lake for up to 6 hours. She constructs the inequality and number line below to represent the number of hours .

Answer:

→ Emilia inequality for x number of hours = x ≤ 6 .

since, she pays $24 for upto 6 hours , she can use boat from 0 hours to maximum 6 hours .

therefore, Emilia's inequality x ≤ 6 is correct because the number of hours is less than or equal to 6 .

now, from image, we can see that, Emilia uses number line from 0 hours to 14 hours in number line .

But correct number should be from 0 hours to 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 hours only .

therefore, Emilia's number line is incorrect . The endpoint is filled in and the number line is greater than the endpoint.
