Answer:

Option 2 (Graph B)

Explanation:

x ≤ ⁵/4 or x ≥ ⁵/2 represents a compound inequality containing the union of two statements. Either of the statements makes the compound inequality true.

On a graph, the small "o" indicating the start of the value of x would be full, this means ⁵/4 and ⁵/2 are included in the solutions.

Therefore, the correct graph in option 2 (Graph B), where the arrow goes from between 1 and 1.5 to your left, and the other arrow goes from 2.5 to your right.
