when you graph them (on a coordinate plane) you make your point where the b intercept is and then make the rest of your line dep. on what the slope is then if the inequality is less than or greater than you make a dotted line and if it is a greater/less than or equal to your line is gonna be solid. then just shade either above or below dep. on what the sign is.

if you're graphing on a line graph, just make the point for whatever for your number that x is either less/greater than then if its less than/greater than the circle is going to be open if its less/greater than or equal to the circle is going to be enclosed. then just shade the line in the direction that would be equal to x.

an example of greater than or equal to would be like 0 is greater than or equal to 0, or 4 is less than or equal to 5.

so it could be like x is less than or equal to 5. so on a number line make an enclosed circle at 5 and shade to the left.

hope i helped! if you have any more math questions feel free to ask me!

I hate math to. we were just doing them a week ago. Ok I always remember the sign <(less than)because it's the one that make the sloppy L. So if it doesn't make the sloppy L it's greater than. Ok for example 6 < 8 i always remember that the pacman wants to eat the bigger number so the opening is the mouth and it is tying to eat the bigger number. I don't think you are spossed to graph the less than sign i think you are spossed to graph the number i think you would graph 8 but i am not sure. say you are doing x+8 <or>or equal to 12 you would graph x and you would find x by adding 12 to 8 which would be 20 so you would graph 20 I really hope you get this and i hope that i showed you right.
