Bot an inequality is shown. r/16 < 2 Which number line represents the solution to the inequality?
To represent the inequality r/16 < 2 on a number line, you need to consider two important points:
1) The number 2 should be represented as a filled-in circle to indicate that it is not included in the solution.
2) Since r is divided by 16, the solution will be all values less than 2 when multiplied by 16.
Thus, the number line representation would look like this:
-----o------------o----->
0 32 2
The open circle indicates that 2 is not a part of the solution, and the numbers to the left of 2 (such as 0 and 32) are all included in the solution.
