Solving and Graphing One-Variable Inequalities

The video tutorial covers key concepts in solving inequalities, including the use of open and closed circles, parentheses, and brackets in interval notation. It emphasizes the importance of flipping the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by negative numbers. The tutorial provides multiple examples to illustrate these concepts, ensuring students understand how to manipulate variables and apply the correct notation. The video concludes with a reminder of the homework assignment.

What must you do to the inequality sign when you multiply or divide by a negative number?

• Flip it

• Double it

• Keep it the same

• Remove it
