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 represent inequalities graphically?

Back

Inequalities are represented on a graph by shading the region that satisfies the inequality. The boundary line can be solid (for ≤ or ≥) or dotted (for < or >).

When graphing the inequality y > 2, what type of line is used?

Back

A dotted line is used when graphing the inequality y > 2, indicating that points on the line are not included in the solution.

What is an example of a point that is a solution to the system of inequalities x + y ≤ 5 and x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0?

Back

(2, 3) is a solution because it satisfies both inequalities.
