What is a system of inequalities?

Back

A system of inequalities is a set of two or more inequalities with the same variables. The solution is the set of all points that satisfy all inequalities in the system.

How do you graph a linear inequality?

Back

To graph a linear inequality, first graph the corresponding linear equation as a dashed or solid line. Then, shade the region that satisfies the inequality (above for 'greater than', below for 'less than').

What does it mean if a line is dashed in a graph of an inequality?

Back

A dashed line indicates that the points on the line are not included in the solution set (for inequalities like < or >).

Front

What does it mean if a line is solid in a graph of an inequality?

Back

A solid line indicates that the points on the line are included in the solution set (for inequalities like ≤ or ≥).

How can you determine if a point is a solution to a system of inequalities?

Back

To determine if a point is a solution, substitute the point's coordinates into each inequality. If the point satisfies all inequalities, it is a solution.

What is the purpose of using systems of equations in real-life problems?

Back

Systems of equations are used to find the values of variables that satisfy multiple conditions simultaneously, often representing constraints in real-life scenarios.

What is the substitution method in solving systems of equations?

Back

The substitution method involves solving one equation for one variable and then substituting that expression into the other equation.

Front

What is the elimination method in solving systems of equations?

Back

The elimination method involves adding or subtracting equations to eliminate one variable, making it easier to solve for the remaining variable.

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

Back

The feasible region is the area on a graph that represents all possible solutions to a system of inequalities, where all constraints are satisfied.

How do you find the intersection point of two lines?

Back

To find the intersection point, solve the system of equations formed by the two lines simultaneously, either by substitution or elimination.
