Set 1: Linear Inequalities (Advanced)

Choice A is correct. Choice A is the correct answer. "Or" inequalities typically graph as two outward-pointing rays. 1. $x < -2$: Strict inequality $\rightarrow$ Open circle at -2, shade Left. 2. $x \geq 1$: Inclusive inequality $\rightarrow$ Closed circle at 1, shade Right. 3. Combine: Two separate shaded regions. Strategic Tip: "Or" usually means "Outward" (away from each other), while "And" usually means "Inward" (between two values). Choice B is incorrect because it swaps the circle types (closed for $<$, open for $\geq$). Choice C is incorrect because it represents an "And" inequality ($-2 < x \leq 1$). Choice D is incorrect because it shades the wrong directions.
