Answer:

Chris is not correct as 6 and 6.5 both are less than 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of inequality is given by k > 7.

So, the solution of k on the number line will be on the right-hand side of 7 but not including 7, for example, 7.5, 8, 8.5, etc.

Chris says 6.5 and 6 is a solution of the inequality, but he is not correct.

Because 6.5 and 6 both lies in the left side of 7 on the number line i.e. 6.5 and 6 both are less than 7. (Answer)
