Question

the solution is $xleq -\frac{5}{12}$.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the inequality type

We have a less - than or equal to inequality $x\leq-\frac{5}{12}\approx - 0.42$.

Step2: Represent on number line

On the number line, we mark a closed circle at $-\frac{5}{12}$ (because of $\leq$) and draw an arrow to the left to represent all values of $x$ that satisfy the inequality.

Answer:

To represent $x\leq-\frac{5}{12}$ on the number line, place a closed circle at $-\frac{5}{12}$ (which is between - 0.5 and 0) and draw an arrow to the left.
