y > ax2 + bx + c y ≥ ax2 + bx + c y < ax2 + bx + c y ≤ ax2 + bx + c There are four types of quadratic inequalities in two variables.
y > x2 − 2x − 3 x = −b/2a= y =
Where to shade… • Test a point inside the parabola, such as (0, 0). • If you get a true statement when you substitute the point into the inequality, shade that area. • If you get a false statement when you substitute the point into the inequality, shade the opposite area.
Rappelling A manila rope used for rappelling down a cliff can safely support a weight W(in pounds) provided W ≤ 1480d 2 where dis the rope’s diameter (in inches). Graph the inequality. SOLUTION Graph W = 1480d 2 for nonnegative values of d. Because the inequality symbol is ≤, make the parabola solid. Test a point inside the parabola, such as (1, 2000).
2000 ≤ 1480 Rappelling continued W≤ 1480d 2 2000≤ 1480(1)2 Because (1, 2000) is not a solution, shade the region below the parabola.
Solving a Quadratic Inequality by Graphing (Looking for x intercepts) x2 − 6x + 5 < 0. Let y = 0 and factor to solve. (x−1)(x−5) = 0x = 1 or x = 5 Solution 1<x<5

Graph the system of quadratic inequalities. y < – x2 + 4 Inequality 1 y > x2 – 2x – 3 Inequality 2 SOLUTION STEP 1 Graph y ≤ –x2 + 4. The graph is the red region inside and including the parabola y = –x2 + 4. STEP 2 Graph y > x2– 2x – 3. The graph is the blue region inside (but not including) the parabola y = x2 –2x – 3. STEP 3 Identify the purple regionwhere the two graphs overlap. This region is the graph of the system.
Robotics The number Tof teams that have participated in a robot-building competition for high school students can be modeled by T(x) = 7.51x2 –16.4x + 35.0, 0 ≤ x ≤ 9 Where x is the number of years since 1992. For what years was the number of teams greater than 100? You want to find the values of xfor which: T(x) > 100 7.51x2 – 16.4x – 65 > 0 Graph y = 7.51x2 – 16.4x – 65 on the domain 0 ≤ x ≤ 9. The graph’s x-intercept is about 4.2. The graph lies above the x-axis when 4.2 < x ≤ 9. There were more than 100 teams participating in the years 1997–2001.
Solve a quadratic inequality algebraically Solve x2 – 2x > 15 algebraically. SOLUTION First, write and solve the equation obtained by replacing > with = . x2 – 2x = 15 Write equation that corresponds to original inequality. x2 – 2x – 15 = 0 Write in standard form. (x + 3)(x – 5) = 0 Factor. x = – 3 orx = 5 Zero product property
62 –2(6) = 24 >15 12 –2(1) 5 –1 >15 ANSWER The solution is x < – 3 orx > 5. The numbers – 3 and 5 are the critical x-values of the inequality x2 – 2x > 15. Plot – 3 and 5 on a number line, using open dots because the values do not satisfy the inequality. The critical x-values partition the number line into three intervals. Test an x-value in each interval to see if it satisfies the inequality. Test x = – 4: Test x = 1: Test x = 6:
What is different in the graphing process of an equality and an inequality? • If the equation is > or <, the parabola is dashed. • Either the inside or the outside of the parabola is shaded. Pick a point not on the parabola and see if it makes a true statement. If true, shade where the point is located. If not, shade the other area.
