Question

what inequality does this number line show?
173 174 175 176 177 178
write your answer starting with x (for example, x < 3).

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the number line

The number line has a closed dot (filled circle) at 174 and the arrow is pointing to the right. A closed dot means the number 174 is included.

Step2: Determine the inequality

Since the arrow is to the right (indicating values greater than or equal to 174) and the dot is closed (so 174 is included), the inequality is \( x \geq 174 \).

Answer:

\( x \geq 174 \)
