The video tutorial explains how to solve inequalities, focusing on common student confusions with fractions. It demonstrates solving basic equations using inverse operations and extends this to equations involving fractions. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of isolating variables and concludes with a graphical representation of inequalities using a line graph, highlighting the solution set for inequalities.

What is the inverse operation used to solve the equation X + 1 = 5?

• Divide by 5

• Subtract 1

• Multiply by 5

• Add 1

When solving X / 5 = 10, what operation should be used to isolate X?

• Divide by 10

• Add 5

• Subtract 5

• Multiply by 5

Why is it important to use inverse operations when solving equations?

• To add more variables

• To eliminate terms and isolate the variable

• To make the equation more complex

• To change the equation's solution

In a line graph representing an inequality, what does an unshaded circle at a point indicate?

• The point is a maximum value

• The point is not part of the solution

• The point is part of the solution

• The point is the only solution

What direction do you shade on a line graph for numbers greater than a given value?

• To the left

• To the right

• Upwards

• Downwards
