Question

1. write and graph an inequality for:

a number, n is at least 8.
inequality sentence:__________________________

Explanation:

Step1: Understand the phrase "at least"

"At least" means greater than or equal to.

Step2: Write the inequality

If the number is \(n\) and it is at least \(8\), the inequality is \(n\geq8\).

Answer:

Inequality sentence: \(n\geq8\)

To graph \(n\geq8\):

• Draw a number line.
• Put a closed circle (because \(n\) can be equal to \(8\)) at \(8\) on the number line.
• Shade to the right of \(8\) (because \(n\) is greater than or equal to \(8\)).
