Explanation:

Step1: Solve the inequality

We have the inequality \(40 \leq g - 8\). To solve for \(g\), we add 8 to both sides of the inequality.

Which can be rewritten as \(g\geq48\).

Step2: Graph the solution

For the inequality \(g\geq48\), the endpoint is at 48. Since the inequality is "greater than or equal to", the endpoint is a closed circle (filled in). Then we draw a ray starting at 48 and pointing to the right (towards larger numbers) to represent all values of \(g\) that are greater than or equal to 48.

Answer:

The inequality is \(g\geq48\). For the graph, plot a closed circle at 48 and draw a ray to the right.
