Understanding Inequalities and Their Graphs

In this video, Mr. J explains how to solve and graph one-step division inequalities. He emphasizes the importance of isolating the variable using inverse operations and highlights the need to flip the inequality symbol when multiplying or dividing by a negative number. The video includes two examples: solving x/4 ≤ 12 and W/-9 < 7, with detailed steps and graphing instructions. Mr. J also checks solutions to ensure accuracy and concludes with a brief summary.

What is the primary goal when solving inequalities?

• To find the exact value of the variable

• To isolate the variable on one side

• To eliminate all variables

• To make both sides equal
