Question

graph.
x > -60
plot the endpoints. select an endpoint to change it from closed to open. select the middle of
the segment, ray, or line to delete it.
-90 -80 -70 -60 -50 -40 -30 -20
submit

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the inequality type

The inequality is \( x > -60 \), which is a strict inequality (no "or equal to"), so the endpoint at \( -60 \) should be open.

Step2: Determine the direction of the ray

Since \( x \) is greater than \( -60 \), the ray should start at \( -60 \) (open circle) and extend to the right (towards positive numbers on the number line).

Step3: Plot the endpoint and ray

  • Place an open circle at \( -60 \) (because \( x \) is not equal to \( -60 \)).
  • Draw a ray starting from the open circle at \( -60 \) and going to the right (towards \( -50, -40, \dots \)).

Answer:

To graph \( x > -60 \):

  1. Place an open circle at \( -60 \) (since \( x

eq -60 \)).

  1. Draw a ray starting from the open circle at \( -60 \) and extending to the right (towards larger numbers, e.g., \( -50, -40, \) etc.).
