6-6 Systems of inequalities Updated

What is a system of inequalities?

Back

A system of inequalities is a set of two or more inequalities that share the same variables. The solution is the set of all points that satisfy all inequalities in the system.

How do you graph a linear inequality?

Back

To graph a linear inequality, first graph the corresponding linear equation as a dashed or solid line (depending on whether the inequality is strict or inclusive). Then, shade the region that satisfies the inequality.

What does it mean if a point is a solution to a system of inequalities?

Back

A point is a solution to a system of inequalities if it satisfies all inequalities in the system, meaning it lies in the shaded region of the graph.

What is the difference between a strict and non-strict inequality?

Back

A strict inequality (e.g., < or >) does not include the boundary line, while a non-strict inequality (e.g., ≤ or ≥) includes the boundary line.

How can you determine if a point is a solution to a system of inequalities?

Back

To determine if a point is a solution, substitute the point's coordinates into each inequality. If the point satisfies all inequalities, it is a solution.

Front

What does it mean if a system of inequalities has no solution?

Back

A system of inequalities has no solution if there is no point that satisfies all inequalities, often resulting in parallel lines that do not intersect.

What is the significance of the shaded region in the graph of a system of inequalities?

Back

The shaded region represents all possible solutions to the system of inequalities, where any point within this region satisfies all inequalities.

How do you find the intersection of two inequalities?

Back

To find the intersection of two inequalities, graph both inequalities and identify the region where the shaded areas overlap. This overlapping region represents the solution set.

What is a feasible region in the context of linear programming?

Back

A feasible region is the set of all possible points that satisfy a system of inequalities, representing all potential solutions to the problem.

What is the role of boundary lines in graphing inequalities?

Back

Boundary lines separate the shaded region (solutions) from the non-shaded region (non-solutions). They are drawn based on the corresponding linear equations.
