This video tutorial by Kirk Weiler from eMath Instruction covers solving linear inequalities. It begins with an introduction to the topic, followed by a detailed explanation of the properties of inequalities and their similarities to equalities. The tutorial includes exercises demonstrating basic operations and highlights an important exception when multiplying or dividing by negative numbers. It provides a step-by-step guide to solving linear inequalities and instructions on graphing their solutions. The video concludes with a section on simplifying inequalities using properties of numbers.
