Graphing Inequalities on a Number Line

The video tutorial covers graphing inequalities, explaining how they differ from equations by using inequality signs instead of equal signs. It demonstrates solving inequalities by isolating variables and graphing solutions on a number line. The tutorial includes examples with positive and negative coefficients, emphasizing the need to flip inequality signs when multiplying or dividing by negatives. It also addresses common confusions, such as handling zero in inequalities.

What symbol is used in inequalities instead of an equal sign?

• Plus sign

• Multiplication sign

• Greater than or less than sign

• Percentage sign
