Which interval form represents (x\le -2) or (x>4) on the number line?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ((-\infty,-2]\cup(4,\infty))

The direct answer is option A, (-∞,-2]∪(4,∞). The word ‘or’ means that either separate condition may be true, so the solution sets are joined with union, ∪. First, x≤-2 includes -2 because equality is allowed; its interval is (-∞,-2]. Second, x>4 excludes 4 because the inequality is strict; its interval is (4,∞). Option A correctly combines both parts. Option B excludes -2 and includes 4, reversing both endpoint rules. Option C, [-2,4], contains the middle section and does not represent either outer condition. Option D, (-2,4), also shows only the middle section and excludes both endpoints, so it is incorrect. On the number line, place a filled dot at -2 and shade left; place an open circle at 4 and shade right. Memory cue: ‘or’ usually creates separate regions joined by ∪.
