Presumably you're referring to Roman numerals?

Any numeral with an horizontal line above it indicates multiplication by a thousand.

The little known Roman numeral which looks like an S represents a half and the Latin word for it is semis meaning a half.

Therefore, S with a line above it would equal D (1000*1/2 = 500)

How would you graph an inequalities x-s less than or equal to y?

Mark a point on the x-axis as 's', then draw a solid line through this point, with a slope of 1. Then shade in the area above this line. The region above the line is shaded because if x-s < y then y > (x-s). The line is drawn as a solid line to represent that it can be equal, as well. At the point x=s, y = 0, which is where you marked s on the x-axis.
