Question

question 6 of 12, step 1 of 1
graph the solution to the given compound inequality.
{x|x ≥ -4 or x ≤ -9}
(open in new window)
create an interval with the indicated endpoint type. the interval is graphed by moving the endpoints to the desired values. to indicate infinity or negative infinity, drag an open end point to the end of the number line.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify endpoints

The inequality is $x \geq -4$ or $x \leq -9$. Endpoints are $-9$ (closed) and $-4$ (closed).

Step2: Graph intervals

For $x \leq -9$: closed dot at $-9$, shade left. For $x \geq -4$: closed dot at $-4$, shade right.

Answer:

A number line with a closed circle at -9 shaded to the left and a closed circle at -4 shaded to the right.
