Question

Help me out with this math problem for 50 points!!!

Answer 1

Hope that helps!! If it’s asking to simplify it, you can’t simplify it anymore. I don’t get what it means by possible solutions, but maybe put what the numbers are on the number line? I really hope that helps have a great day!!

Answer 2

• see attached for a graph
• -1, -2.6, -497

Explanation:

The solution to a one-variable inequality can be graphed on a number line. The number line is shaded where the values satisfy the inequality. Boundaries of shaded regions are marked by points that are either a solid dot, or an open circle, depending on whether the point is included in the solution or not.

__

Here, the inequality tells us any value of x that is less than or equal to -1 will satisfy the inequality. Since -1 is part of the solution set, that boundary point will be marked with a solid dot. Values less than -1 are shown on a number line to the left of the point marked -1.

The graph will be a solid dot at x=-1, and shading to its left.

__

Possible solutions are any values less than or equal to -1. Some are ...

-1

-1.073
