graph the compound inequality on the number line. \n$x < -1$ or $x > 8$

graph the compound inequality on the number line. \n$x < -1$ or $x > 8$

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Mark boundary for x < -1

Use an open circle at $x=-1$ (since -1 is not included), then draw an arrow pointing left from this circle to represent all values less than -1.

Step2: Mark boundary for x > 8

Use an open circle at $x=8$ (since 8 is not included), then draw an arrow pointing right from this circle to represent all values greater than 8.

Answer:

  • On the number line:
    1. Place an open circle at $-1$ and shade/arrow all values to the left of $-1$.
    2. Place an open circle at $8$ and shade/arrow all values to the right of $8$.
