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 ordered pairs that satisfy all inequalities in the system.

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 x and y values of the point into each inequality. If the point satisfies all inequalities, it is a solution.

What does it mean for a point to be part of the solution set?

Back

A point is part of the solution set if it satisfies all inequalities in the system, meaning it lies in the region defined by the inequalities.

What is the graphical representation of a system of inequalities?

Back

The graphical representation consists of shaded regions on a coordinate plane, where each region corresponds to the solutions of the inequalities.

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

Back

The boundary line represents the points where the inequality changes from true to false. If the inequality is strict (e.g., < or >), the line is dashed; if it is inclusive (e.g., ≤ or ≥), the line is solid.

What does it mean if a point lies above a boundary line in a system of inequalities?

Back

If a point lies above a boundary line, it means that the point satisfies the inequality associated with that line.

What does it mean if a point lies below a boundary line in a system of inequalities?

Back

If a point lies below a boundary line, it means that the point does not satisfy the inequality associated with that line.

How can you identify a solution from a list of points?

Back

To identify a solution from a list of points, substitute each point into the inequalities. The points that satisfy all inequalities are the solutions.

Front

What is an ordered pair in the context of a system of inequalities?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers (x, y) that represents a point on the coordinate plane.

What is the difference between a solution and a non-solution in a system of inequalities?

Back

A solution satisfies all inequalities in the system, while a non-solution does not satisfy at least one inequality.
