Graphing Lines and Inequalities

Mr. Buffington introduces graphing inequalities, starting with graphing lines using the slope-intercept form. He explains how to identify the y-intercept and slope to draw lines. The lesson then shifts to graphing inequalities, focusing on identifying y-intercepts, slopes, and shading areas based on inequality symbols. The video concludes with exercises on matching graphs to inequalities by analyzing these features.

What is the first step in graphing a line using the slope-intercept form?

• Draw the x-axis

• Identify the y-intercept

• Identify the slope

• Shade the area above the line
