Graph the solutions of the inequality on a number line. Describe the solution to the inequality. c ≤ -2 open dot at –2; shade all the points to the right of –2
closed dot at –2; shade all the points to the right of –2
open dot at –2; shade all the points to the left of –2
closed dot at –2; shade all the points to the left of –2

The inequality is 2 ≤ x < 8.

A closed dot represents ≤, and an open dot represents <. Since x can represent all values between 2 and 8, you will shade in between 2 and 8 on the number line. x is greater than or equal to 2, so there will be a closed dot on 2. x is less than 8, so there will be an open dot on 8.

The answer is 'number line with a closed dot on 2 and an open dot on 8 and shading in between'.

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
