Graphing Linear Inequalities

Objective: Graph linear inequalities and determine solutions.

​Graphing Equations and Inequalities

​Graphs of inequalities are similar to linear equations because they both have points on a coordinate plane and a line connecting the points. However, a linear equation is ONLY the line but an inequality extends beyond that line.

​y < -3x + 1

​Graphing Linear Inequalities

​The inequality symbol tells you to SHADE ABOVE or SHADE BELOW the line.

< or ≤ Shade BELOW 

> or ≥ Shade ABOVE 

​y ≥ -3x + 1

Multiple Choice
