Graphing a vertical inequality using a table of values

The video tutorial explains how to graph the inequality X is greater than or equal to -5 on a Cartesian plane. It covers the use of boundary lines, the difference between solid and dashed lines, and the importance of test points for determining shading. The tutorial emphasizes the use of a vertical line for the inequality and demonstrates how to choose test points to identify the solution set.

What is the first step in graphing an inequality on a Cartesian plane?

• Graph the boundary line

• Determine the Y-intercept

• Use a test point

• Find the slope of the line

How do you determine if the boundary line should be solid or dashed?

• By calculating the Y-intercept

• By finding the slope of the line

• By using a test point

• By checking if the inequality includes 'or equal to'

What is the purpose of choosing a test point when graphing inequalities?

• To find the slope of the line

• To determine the correct region to shade

• To calculate the Y-intercept

• To verify the boundary line

Which test point is commonly used if it does not lie on the boundary line?

• (0, 0)

• (2, 2)

• (1, 1)

• (-1, -1)

What does shading represent in the graph of an inequality?

• The slope of the line

• The boundary line

• The region of true solutions

• The Y-intercept
