First you look at the left side of the graph. You can tell by the shape that it is an x^3 function. also the filled in circle means inclusive. so we know that when x <= (whatever number). It is impossible to tell for sure with this graph if it is on 1. for the first part. the only answer that has less then or equal to is the last one, D. So the answer is D. You can look at the right side that it is open circle. So we know it is >. So we can see the bottom part of D has that as well
