What is a linear inequality?

Back

A linear inequality is a mathematical statement that relates a linear expression to a value using inequality symbols (>, <, ≥, ≤) instead of an equal sign.

What does the graph of a linear inequality represent?

Back

The graph of a linear inequality represents all the solutions that satisfy the inequality, typically shown as a shaded region on one side of the boundary line.

How do you graph a linear inequality?

Back

1. Graph the corresponding linear equation as a dashed or solid line. 2. Choose a test point not on the line to determine which side to shade.

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 (≥ or ≤), while a dashed line indicates that points on the line are not included (> or <).

What is a system of inequalities?

Back

A system of inequalities is a set of two or more inequalities with the same variables, and the solution is the region where the shaded areas of the graphs overlap.

How do you find a solution to a system of inequalities?

Back

To find a solution, graph each inequality on the same coordinate plane and identify the overlapping shaded region, which represents all possible solutions.

What is a feasible region in the context of linear inequalities?

Back

The feasible region is the area on the graph where all the inequalities in a system are satisfied, representing all possible solutions.

What does it mean for a point to be a solution to a system of inequalities?

Back

A point is a solution to a system of inequalities if it lies within the feasible region, meaning it satisfies all inequalities in the system.

How can you determine if a point is a solution to a given inequality?

Back

Substitute the coordinates of the point into the inequality. If the inequality holds true, then the point is a solution.

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

Back

The boundary line separates the coordinate plane into two regions: one that satisfies the inequality and one that does not.
