The video tutorial explains how to graph a linear inequality, specifically focusing on the inequality Y ≥ -2/3X - 2. It covers the importance of determining whether to use a solid or dashed line, based on the inequality symbol. The tutorial then explains how to use the slope-intercept form to identify the slope and y-intercept, and how to plot these on a graph. It also discusses the significance of the slope as a ratio and how to use it to find additional points on the line. Finally, the video demonstrates how to test points to determine which side of the line to shade, indicating the solution set for the inequality.
