Question

Represent $x>1$ in a number line.

• A.
• B.

Answer 1

The correct option is B

$x>1$ represents $x$ is any number in the number line that is greater than 1.
$\Rightarrow$ Starting from $1$ in the number line we need to move rightwards.

As $x$ is greater than $1$, it cannot take the value of $1$.

To exclude $1$ in the number line representation, a open circle is drawn at $1$.
