How do you graph a linear inequality?

Back

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

What does the symbol '≤' mean in a linear inequality?

Back

The symbol '≤' means 'less than or equal to', indicating that the values of the variable can be equal to the boundary line or less than it.

What does the symbol '≥' mean in a linear inequality?

Back

The symbol '≥' means 'greater than or equal to', indicating that the values of the variable can be equal to the boundary line or greater than it.

What is the significance of the boundary line in a linear inequality?

Back

The boundary line represents the values where the inequality changes from true to false. It divides the graph into two regions: one that satisfies the inequality and one that does not.

How do you determine which side of the boundary line to shade?

Back

To determine which side to shade, pick a test point not on the line (commonly (0,0) if it's not on the line) and substitute it into the inequality. If the inequality holds true, shade the side containing the test point.

What is the solution set of a linear inequality?

Back

The solution set of a linear inequality is the set of all points (x, y) that satisfy the inequality, represented graphically by the shaded region on the graph.

What is the difference between a solid line and a dashed line in graphing inequalities?

Back

A solid line indicates that points on the line are included in the solution set (for ≤ or ≥), while a dashed line indicates that points on the line are not included (for < or >).
