6th Grade Math-Graphing Inequalities on a Number Line (the basics)

Updated version of graphing inequalities https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&video_id=HDq7l7CnN-A In this video, you will learn how to basics for graphing ...

Answer

To solve Inequalities we need to understand well the meaning of symbols like these:

Symbol

Words

Example

     

greater than

x + 3 > 2

less than

7x < 28

greater than or equal to

 x − 1

less than or equal to

2y + 1  7

 
In the example that we have: The ground will be represented as (x) and x = 0
The basement floor (y) is -15 feet:  y=-15 where x > y and x = y + 15
The roof (z) is above the ground 25 feet: z=25 where x < z and x = z - 25
