Inequalities on a Number Line

Move between an inequality and its number-line picture: an open circle means the value is NOT included (< or >); a closed (filled-in) circle means it IS included (≤ or ≥).

  1. 1.
    Describe how the solution set x < 4 would be shown on a number line.
  2. 2.
    Describe how the solution set x ≥ 8 would be shown on a number line.
  3. 3.
    Describe how the solution set x ≥ 0 would be shown on a number line.
  4. 4.
    Describe how the solution set x > 5 would be shown on a number line.
  5. 5.
    Describe how the solution set x ≥ 7 would be shown on a number line.
  6. 6.
    A number line shows a closed (filled-in) circle at -1, shaded to the left. Write the inequality this represents.
  7. 7.
    A number line shows a closed (filled-in) circle at -4, shaded to the left. Write the inequality this represents.
  8. 8.
    A number line shows an open circle at -3, shaded to the left. Write the inequality this represents.
  9. 9.
    A number line shows a closed (filled-in) circle at 1, shaded to the right. Write the inequality this represents.
  10. 10.
    A number line shows an open circle at 4, shaded to the left. Write the inequality this represents.
  11. 11.
    Write the inequality shown by a number line with a open circle at -8 and a open circle at 0, shaded in between.
  12. 12.
    Write the inequality shown by a number line with a closed circle at 2 and a closed circle at 6, shaded in between.
  13. 13.
    Write the inequality shown by a number line with a open circle at -6 and a open circle at 0, shaded in between.
  14. 14.
    Write the inequality shown by a number line with a closed circle at -6 and a closed circle at 1, shaded in between.
