The number line below shows the solution set of an inequality: Which two inequalities represent the graph shown?
Answer Choices
- A: -2x>4 and 4x<-8
- B: 3x>-6 and x-4>6
- C: 4x<-8 and x≥6
- D: 4x<-8 and x≥6
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Assume graph shows -2 ? x ? 10. Test option B: 3x > -6 †’ x > -2; x - 4 ? 6 †’ x ? 10. This matches the interval. Thus, the correct answer is 3x>-6 and x-4?6.
