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 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 coordinates of the point into each inequality. If the point satisfies all inequalities, it is a solution.

What does the inequality symbol '>' represent?

Back

'>' means that the value on the left is greater than the value on the right.

How do you graph a linear inequality?

Back

To graph a linear inequality, first graph the corresponding equation as a line. Use a dashed line for '<' or '>' and a solid line for '≤' or '≥'. Then shade the region that satisfies the inequality.

What is the solution set of a system of inequalities?

Back

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

What is the significance of the point (0,0) in a system of inequalities?

Back

The point (0,0) is often tested to see if it is a solution to the system. If it satisfies all inequalities, it is part of the solution set.

How do you identify the correct system of inequalities from a graph?

Back

Look for the boundary lines and the shaded regions. The inequalities will correspond to the direction of the shading and whether the lines are solid or dashed.
