Use the number line to graph the following inequality.

$x\ge -7$

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer: (A)

Verified step by step guidance

1. Identify the inequality given: \(x \geq -7\). This means \(x\) is greater than or equal to \(-7\).
2. Locate the point \(-7\) on the number line. Since the inequality includes 'equal to', use a closed circle or bracket at \(-7\) to indicate that \(-7\) is included in the solution.
3. Since \(x\) is greater than or equal to \(-7\), shade or draw an arrow to the right of \(-7\) on the number line to represent all values greater than \(-7\).
4. Make sure the arrow extends indefinitely to the right, indicating that all numbers greater than \(-7\) satisfy the inequality.
5. Review the graph to confirm it correctly shows a closed circle at \(-7\) and shading or an arrow extending to the right, representing \(x \geq -7\).
