Graphing Systems of Linear Inequalities

Front

What is a system of linear inequalities?

Back

A system of linear inequalities is a set of two or more inequalities with the same variables. The solution is the region where the graphs of the inequalities overlap.

How do 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.

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

Back

It means that the point lies in the region defined by the inequalities, satisfying all conditions.

What type of line is used when graphing the inequalities with < or >?

Back

A dotted line is used when graphing inequalities with < or > to indicate that points on the line are not included in the solution.

What type of line is used when graphing the inequalities with ≤ or ≥?

Back

A solid line is used when graphing inequalities with ≤ or ≥ to indicate that points on the line are included in the solution.

What is the solution set of a system of linear inequalities?

Back

The solution set is the region on the graph where the shaded areas of all inequalities overlap.

How do you solve a system of inequalities by graphing?

Back

1. Graph each inequality on the same coordinate plane. 2. Identify the overlapping shaded region, which represents the solution.

What does it mean if a point lies outside the shaded region of a graph of inequalities?

Back

It means that the point does not satisfy at least one of the inequalities in the system.

What is the significance of the boundary line in a system of inequalities?

Back

The boundary line separates the solution region from the non-solution region and indicates whether points on the line are included based on the type of inequality.
