Understanding Inequalities and Interval Notation

The video tutorial explains how to solve inequalities by distributing terms, combining like terms, and isolating the variable x. It emphasizes the importance of reversing the inequality symbol when multiplying or dividing by a negative number. The tutorial also covers graphing solutions using open points and line segments, and explains how to express solutions in interval notation, including the use of infinity symbols.

What must you remember to do when multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative number?

• Subtract the same number from both sides

• Multiply by zero

• Add the same number to both sides

• Reverse the inequality symbol

What is the result of distributing 4 in the expression 4(9x - 14)?

• 36x - 56

• -36x + 56
