The video tutorial explains how to solve a rational inequality by finding the zeros of the numerator and denominator, plotting them on a number line, and testing intervals with selected values. The solution is expressed using interval notation, highlighting the importance of open and closed points based on the inequality symbol.

What is the first step in solving a rational inequality?

• Determine the zeros of the numerator and denominator.

• Test the intervals with selected values.

• Ensure the inequality is in the correct form.

• Plot the zeros on a number line.

How do you find the zero of the numerator in the inequality r(x) > 0?

• Set the entire inequality to zero.

• Set the denominator to zero.

• Set x - 6 equal to zero and solve for x.

• Set x - 4 equal to zero and solve for x.

What type of points are used for the zeros of the numerator when the inequality symbol is 'greater than'?

• Open points

• Closed points

• Dashed points

• Solid points
