Explanation:

Step1: Analyze Graph 5

The graph has a closed dot at 7, meaning 7 is included, and the arrow points right (values greater than or equal to 7).
$n \geq 7$

Step2: Analyze Graph 6

The graph has an open dot at 5, meaning 5 is not included, and the arrow points right (values greater than 5).
$n > 5$

Answer:

1. $n \geq 7$
2. $n > 5$
