Graphing Compound Inequalities and Interval Notation

The video tutorial explains compound inequalities, which are two or more inequalities connected by 'and' or 'or'. It provides examples of both types, demonstrating how to graph them on a number line and express them using interval notation. The 'and' example requires both conditions to be satisfied, while the 'or' example requires only one. The tutorial also explains the use of union symbols in place of 'or'.

What are compound inequalities?

• Inequalities that have no solution

• Inequalities that are always true

• Inequalities that involve only one variable

• Inequalities that are connected with 'AND' or 'OR'

In a compound inequality connected by 'AND', what must be true for a solution to be valid?

• It must be less than both values

• It must be greater than both values

• It must satisfy both inequalities

• It must satisfy at least one of the inequalities

How do you graph the inequality x > -5 on a number line?

• Open point on -5 with an arrow to the right

• Closed point on -5 with an arrow to the left

• Open point on -5 with an arrow to the left

• Closed point on -5 with an arrow to the right
