Question

15 directions - graph the compound inequality: (x < - 2) or (x>5)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the inequalities

We have two inequalities $x < - 2$ and $x>5$.

Step2: Graph $x < - 2$

On the number - line, for $x < - 2$, we use an open - circle at $x=-2$ (since $x$ cannot equal $-2$) and draw an arrow to the left.

Step3: Graph $x > 5$

On the number - line, for $x > 5$, we use an open - circle at $x = 5$ (since $x$ cannot equal $5$) and draw an arrow to the right.

Answer:

We use an open - circle at $x=-2$ and draw an arrow to the left, and an open - circle at $x = 5$ and draw an arrow to the right.
