Solve one-step inequalities and represent solutions on a number line.
Represent a solved inequality on a number line
Problem
Solve \(x~-~4~\ge~2\) and identify its graph.
Big Picture
What this problem is really about
First isolate x by undoing the subtraction on both sides; this addition preserves the inequality direction. The solved symbol then controls the graph in two separate ways: the equality bar decides whether the boundary point is filled, and the comparison direction decides which side of the number line is shaded. Check the endpoint and one shaded value in the original inequality.
