Problem 1. (1 point) Problem 3. (1 point)

Sketch the following sets on a piece of paper and write them Express the graph below as an inequality:
in interval notation. Enter the interval in the answer box.
You may use ”infinity” for ∞ and ”-infinity” for −∞. For
example, you may write (-infinity, 5] for the interval (−∞, 5].
