Question

graph the inequality below on the number line.
$a \geq 10$

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the boundary value

The inequality is $a \geq 10$, so the boundary is $a=10$.

Step2: Mark the boundary on number line

Use a closed (filled) dot at 10, since the inequality includes equality ($\geq$).

Step3: Shade the correct region

Shade all values to the right of 10, as $a$ can be 10 or any larger number.

Answer:

1. Place a filled blue dot at the position of 10 on the number line.
2. Draw a shaded arrow extending to the right from the filled dot, covering all numbers greater than 10.
