Solution Steps

Step 1: Analyze the given number line

The number line in option B shows all numbers less than 4, with an open circle at 4, indicating that 4 is not included in the solution set.

Step 2: Translate the number line to an inequality

The number line represents the inequality \( w < 4 \).

Step 3: Match the inequality to the given choices

Option B in part b states: "The solution is \(\{ w \mid w < \text{ } \} \)". This matches the inequality \( w < 4 \).

Final Answer

Option B: The solution is \(\{ w \mid w < 4 \} \).
