To solve the inequality q + 1/3 > 1/2, we need to isolate the variable q.

First, we subtract 1/3 from both sides of the inequality:

q + 1/3 - 1/3 > 1/2 - 1/3
q > 1/2 - 1/3

Next, we find the common denominator of 2 and 3, which is 6:

q > 3/6 - 2/6
q > 1/6

Therefore, the correct solution is q > 1/6.

To graph this inequality on a number line, we start by plotting an open circle at 1/6 (since q is greater than, not equal to, 1/6). Then we shade the part of the number line to the right of 1/6 since q is greater than 1/6.

So, the correct graph for the inequality q + 1/3 > 1/2 is:
