Graphing a simple inequality on a number line

The video tutorial explains how to graph the inequality X > 5 on a number line. It begins by introducing the concept of inequalities and the greater than symbol. The tutorial then describes the number line, which includes all integers from negative to positive infinity. The instructor demonstrates how to use test points to determine which numbers satisfy the inequality and explains the concept of an open circle to indicate that a number is not included in the solution. The video concludes with a demonstration of graphing the inequality, showing that all numbers greater than 5 are part of the solution.

What does the inequality X > 5 represent?

• X is equal to 5

• X is less than 5

• X is not equal to 5

• X is greater than 5

Which of the following numbers is greater than 5?

• 5

• 3

• 7

• 0

What is the purpose of using test points in graphing inequalities?

• To calculate the midpoint

• To verify which numbers satisfy the inequality

• To determine the slope of the line

• To find the exact solution
