Exploring Inequalities: Solving and Graphing Techniques

The video tutorial covers solving and graphing inequalities, similar to solving equations. It includes four examples: 15 + x < 20, x/10 ≤ 5, 12x ≥ 60, and x - 9 > 7. Each example demonstrates how to isolate the variable and graph the solution on a number line, explaining the use of open and closed circles and the direction of the inequality.

What should you have ready before starting to solve and graph inequalities?

• A calculator and a ruler

• A piece of paper and a pencil

• A textbook and a highlighter

• A computer and a mouse
