Question

match the inequality below to the correct graph.
$-5 \geq x$
a
b
c
d

Explanation:

Step1: Rewrite the inequality

Rewrite $-5 \geq x$ as $x \leq -5$.

Step2: Identify point type

Since the inequality includes equality ($\leq$), use a closed (filled) dot at $x=-5$.

Step3: Identify arrow direction

$x \leq -5$ means all values less than or equal to -5, so the arrow points left.

Answer:

D. <graph with closed dot at -5 and arrow pointing left>
