Page 24 A linear inequality is similar to a linear equation, but the equal sign is replaced with an inequality symbol. A solution of a linear inequality is any ordered pair that makes the inequality true.
y < 2x + 1 4 –3 < Example 1: Identifying Solutions of Inequalities Page 26 Tell whether the ordered pair is a solution of the inequality. (–2, 4); y < 2x + 1 4 2(–2) + 1 Substitute (–2, 4) for (x, y). 4 –4 + 1 (–2, 4) is not a solution.
5 4 + 1 55 > Your Turn 1 Page 26 Tell whether the ordered pair is a solution of the inequality. (4, 5); y > x + 1 y > x + 1 Substitute (4, 5) for (x, y). (4, 5) is not a solution.
Solve the inequality for y (slope-intercept form). Step 1 Graph the boundary line. Use a solid line for ≤ or ≥. Use a dashed line for < or >. Step 2 Shade the half-plane above the line for y > or ≥. Shade the half-plane below the line for y < or y ≤. Check your answer. Step 3 Page 25 Graphing Linear Inequalities
Checky 2x –3 0 2(0) – 3 0 –3 Helpful Hint The point (0, 0) is a good test point to use if it does not lie on the boundary line. Example 2: Graphing Linear Inequalities in Two Variables Page 27 Graph the solutions of the linear inequality. y 2x –3 Step 1 The inequality is already solved for y. Step 2 Graph the boundary line y = 2x – 3. Use a solid line for . Step 3 The inequality is , so shade below the line.
Step 2 Graph the boundary line y = – 4. Use a dashed line for <. –4x –4x Check y < – 4 y < – 4 –6 (1) – 4 –6 – 4 –6 < Your Turn 2 Page 28 Graph the solutions of the linear inequality: 4x –3y > 12 Step 1 Solve the inequality for y. 4x –3y > 12 –3y > –4x + 12
y-intercept: 1; slope: Replace = with > to write the inequality Example 3: Writing an Inequality from a Graph Page 28 Write an inequality to represent the graph. Write an equation in slope-intercept form. The graph is shaded above a dashed boundary line.
y = mx + b y = –1x Page 29 Your Turn 3 Write an inequality to represent the graph. y-intercept: 0 slope: –1 Write an equation in slope-intercept form. The graph is shaded below a dashed boundary line. Replace = with < to write the inequality y < –x.
