QuestionPablo is making a keychain that looks like Earth. He is using 13 green beads and plans to use more blue beads than green beads.
Let represent the number of blue beads that Pablo might use. Which inequality models the story?
Graph the inequality that models the story.

STEP 1
1. Pablo is using 13 green beads.
2. Pablo plans to use more blue beads than green beads.
3. We need to find an inequality that represents the number of blue beads, .
STEP 2
1. Understand the relationship between green and blue beads.
2. Formulate the inequality.
3. Graph the inequality.
STEP 3
Understand the relationship between green and blue beads.
Since Pablo plans to use more blue beads than green beads, and he is using 13 green beads, the number of blue beads must be greater than 13.
STEP 4
Formulate the inequality.
Based on the relationship, the inequality that models the story is:
STEP 5
Graph the inequality.
To graph the inequality :
- Plot a point at 13 on a number line.
- Use an open circle at 13 to indicate that 13 is not included in the solution.
- Draw a ray extending to the right from 13 to indicate all numbers greater than 13.
