Best Answer

The points are spaced according to the value of the number they correspond to; in a number line containing only whole numbers.

If you want to know what the symbol would look like when its going a certain way, it would look like this if you started at 6 and was going to the right the arrow would be pointing > that way, if you were going left the arrow would be < that way... Hope I helped!

What does a solid circle and clear circled line mean in math terms?

If you are talking about a graph, a solid circle means that point, say (3,4), is included, and an open circle it is not included


What does open circle mean in math?

An open circle is usually found on a number line in math. An open circle usually represents a number that is not included in the line.


What does an open dot on an line graph mean?

open dot means &lt; or &gt; but not equal to.


How can you graph an inequality?

You have to graph an inequality on a number line. For example, x>3.The number 3 on the number line gets an open circle around it, and a line is extended to all the other possible equations.There is an open circle if it is a "greater than or less than" sign, and there is a shaded circle if there is "greater than or equal to, or a less than or equal to" sign.


What does it mean when you have an open dot on your graph?

It usually means that the line ends there but does not include that point.


What sets would have a graph with an open circle on 5 and a ray pointing left on the number line?

None of the following sets would.


How do you graph x is greater than negative four?

We assume you are graphing on a number line, not an x-y plane. Draw an "open" circle (not filled in) at -4, and a line from it across to the right end of the number line. Put an arrow on the end of the line to show that the graph continues to the right.


How do you graph 4x is less than 4?

4x&lt;4 means x&lt;1 If you graph this on the number lines, you need an open circle at 1 and a solid line from 1 going to the left forever.


How do you graph -6 is greater than x plus 5 as an inequality on a number graph?

The inequality -6 &gt; x+5 can be rewritten -11 &gt; x (by subtracting five from each side) or rather x &lt; -11. To graph this on a number line, draw an open circle over the number -11 (if the inequality included "or equal to" the circle would be filled in). Then draw a line/arrow coming out of the circle over the number line. The line should only be drawn over the portion of the number line that makes the inequality true. For instance, choose a test point. When x is -20, the inequality is true: -20 &lt; -11. So in this case, the arrow coming out of the open circle will point to the left, in the direction that the number line is getting smaller.


What is the difference between an open circle and a close circle on a number line?

an open circle on a number line means the answer is just less than or greater than (< or >), but a closed circle means the answer is less than or equal to, or greater than or equal to (< or > with a line under it)


How do you know whether to use an open circle or a closed circle when graphing an inequality and why?

An open or closed circle are used to graph an inequality in one variable. An open circle is used if the value at the end point is excluded from the feasible region while a closed circle is used if the value at that point is within the accepted region.


What is the difference of an Open and closed circle number line?

With an open circle, the number at which the circle is is NOT included in the dataset; with a closed circle it is. For example if a line is drawn on the number line between 0.5 and 1.5 with a closed circle at 0.5 and an open circle at 1.5, then it represents the numbers between 0.5 and 1.5 including 0.5 but excluding 1.5; this range is the numbers which round to 1 to the nearest whole number.
