Question

Which description fits the graph of x > 4?

a. A vertical solid line, shaded to the right go the line
b. A horizontal dashed line, shaded above the line
c. A horizontal solid line, shaded above the line
d. A vertical dashed line, shaded to the right of the line

Answer 1

Given:

The given inequality is $x>4$

We need to determine the graph that fits the inequality.

Graph of the inequality:

The inequality means that x is greater than 4. This means that the end value 4 is not included.

To graph the inequality " > " a dashed line is used.

The inequality does not contain any y - value in it.

Hence, it has only one vertical line at $x=4$ and is shaded for all values of x greater than 4.

Therefore, the graph that fits the inequality $x>4$ is a vertical dashed line, shaded to the right of the line.

Thus, Option d is the correct answer.
