Understanding Interval Notation and Inequalities

This video tutorial covers expressing intervals using inequality and interval notation. It explains how to graph intervals on a number line using open and closed points, as well as parentheses and brackets. The tutorial provides examples of converting between graph representations and interval notation, including compound inequalities. It also discusses how to input these notations into a homework system, emphasizing the importance of using the correct symbols and previewing entries.

What does an open point on a number line indicate in interval notation?

• The endpoint is included in the interval.

• The interval is finite.

• The endpoint is not included in the interval.

• The interval is infinite.
