The sign is "greater than or equal to" or ≥
If the graph is a two-dimensional plane and you are graphing an inequality, the "greater than or equal to" part will be shown by two things: (1) a solid, not a dotted, line--this part signifies the "or equal to" option--and (2) which region you shade. Shade the region that contains the points that make the inequality true. By shading that region, you are demonstrating the "greater than" part.
It depends on the specific inequality. In the simplest cases, it is solved just like an equation; except that you must be careful when multiplying and dividing - if you multiply or divide both sides by a negative number, you must switch the inequality sign. For instance, a "less-than" sign would be changed to a "greater-than" sign.
An inequality is similar to an equation, in that it compares two expressions. But in an equality, instead of an equal sign, you would usually use one out of the following inequality symbols:* less than * less than or equal * greater than * greater than or equal
The answer depends on what space you are working in. In 1-dimensional space, it would be like the number line and the relevant part of the graph would be all point at or to the right of the value 5.
