A.

1. Expression for grilling time of steak: (x + x + 2) = 2x + 2

2. Equation for grilling time of asparagus: x + 2 = 8
x = 6

Therefore, Malik grills the asparagus for 6 minutes.

B.

3. Inequality for grilling time of corn on the cob: c > 7

We can represent this inequality on a number line by drawing a line and labeling the relevant points. We would label "7" with an open circle (since the inequality is "greater than" and not "greater than or equal to"), and shade the line to the right of the point to indicate all potential values greater than 7.
