Question

graph the solution $16 \leq x$.

Explanation:

Step1: Rewrite inequality for clarity

$x \geq 16$

Step2: Identify boundary point

Boundary at $x=16$; solid circle (since $\geq$ includes 16)

Step3: Determine shading direction

Shade all values to the right of 16 (since $x$ is greater than or equal to 16)

Answer:

1. Draw a number line.
2. Place a filled (solid) circle at the point $x=16$.
3. Draw a thick arrow extending to the right from the solid circle, covering all values greater than 16.
