Explanation:

To solve this, we need to know the inequality (since it's not provided, we assume a common case, e.g., \(|x| \leq 8\) or \(|x| \geq 8\), or linear inequality). But since the options have closed or open circles:

• Closed circle (\(\bullet\)) means the point is included (inequality with \(\leq\) or \(\geq\)).
• Open circle (\(\circ\)) means the point is excluded (inequality with \(<\) or \(>\)).

Analyzing the Options:

• Option A: Closed at \(-8\), arrow left (includes \(-8\) and less).
• Option B: Closed at \(-8\) and \(8\), line between (includes \(-8\) to \(8\), e.g., \(|x| \leq 8\)).
• Option C: Open at \(-8\) and \(8\), line between (excludes endpoints, e.g., \(|x| < 8\)).
• Option D: Open at \(-8\), arrow left; open at \(8\), arrow right (e.g., \(|x| > 8\)).
• Option E: No line (empty, unlikely).
• Option F: Closed at \(-8\) and \(8\), no line between (unlikely).

If the inequality is \(|x| \leq 8\) (all \(x\) with distance from 0 ≤ 8), the graph is a line from \(-8\) to \(8\) with closed circles (since \(x = -8\) and \(x = 8\) are included). This matches Option B.

Answer:

B. The graph with closed circles at \(-8\) and \(8\), and a blue line connecting them (covering \(-8 \leq x \leq 8\)).
