Question

draw a number line to represent the scenario. any value less than 5 or equal to 5
$b < 5$
$b = 5$

Explanation:

Step1: Represent equality

Since \(b = 5\) is included, we use a closed - circle at \(5\) on the number line.

Step2: Represent inequality

Since \(b<5\) (values less than \(5\)), we draw an arrow to the left from the closed - circle at \(5\).

Answer:

On the given number line, place a closed - circle at \(5\) and draw an arrow to the left from that closed - circle.
