Question

Which one of the following graph shows the solution to the inequality $x>2?$

Note: In a number line, a closed circle on the number gets included in the solution, while an open circle on the number will not get included in the solution.

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is D

$x>2$

The symbol used is ''greater than'' $(>)$ so a open circle must be used at 2, which means 2 is not included in our answer.

$x$ is greater than 2, so the arrow from the circle must show the numbers that are larger than 2.

Hence, is the correct answer.
