What do we use to represent inequalities? > < > < How would this look on a graph?

Graphing An Inequality Read the inequality out loud to yourself. Decide if the variable is greater than or less than the number. If the variable is greater than  shade to the right If the variable is less than  shade to the left Another way to think about it: As long as the variable is in front of the inequality, shade in the direction the arrow is pointing.

Examples: x 11 Graphing an Inequality

You Try x > -3 x < 0

How about these two? -5 5

A solution of an inequality is any number that makes the inequality true.
