Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics practice

exam practice - Understand and illustrate inequalities on a number line, using open circles for strict inequalities (less than, greater than) and closed circles for inclusive inequalities (less than or equal to, greater than or equal to). For example, represent the inequality -3 < x ≤ 1 on a number line. - Inequalities
