Taco · Answer 1

X - 1 < = 9

x < = 9 + 1

x < = 10

2x > = 24

x > = 24/2

x > = 12

ok ... since they both include equal signs, they will both have closed circles.

closed circle on 10, shaded to the left (because it is less then) ... and a closed circle on 12, shaded to the right (because it is greater then)
