Understanding Inequalities in One Variable

This video tutorial covers the basics of inequalities in one variable, explaining the different inequality symbols and their meanings. It demonstrates how to determine if a number is a solution to an inequality and how to graph these solutions on a number line. The tutorial also includes real-world examples to illustrate the application of inequalities in everyday situations.

• <

• ≥

• >

• ≤
