Question

40 if ( x ) is less than 5, ( 2x ) will be less than 10.
41 graph an inequality to represent all possible values of ( x ).

Explanation:

Step1: Translate to inequality

From "If $x$ is less than 5", we get:
$x < 5$

Step2: Prepare number line graph

1. Locate $5$ on the number line.
2. Use an open circle at $5$ (since $x$ cannot equal 5).
3. Draw a line extending left from the open circle (to represent all values less than 5).

Answer:

On the provided number line:

1. Place an open circle at the mark labeled 5.
2. Draw a solid line from this open circle to the left, covering all values from 5 towards -10.
