Solving Linear Inequalities Lesson 5.5 linear inequality: _________________________________ ________________________________________________ solution of a linear inequality: ______________________ ________________________________________________
Determine whether the ordered pair is a solution of the inequality. 1. (–2, 4); y x – 4
Determine whether the ordered pair is a solution of the inequality. 3. (4, 5); y x – 7
Because there are an infinite number of solutions to a linear inequality, we need to graph the linear inequality to show all of the solutions.
GRAPHING LINEAR INEQUALITIES Step 1Example: y 2x – 3 Step 2 Step 3
Graph the solutions to the given linear inequalities. 5. 5x + 2y > –8 6. 4x – y + 2 ≤ 0
Graph the solutions to the given linear inequalities. 7. 4x – 3y > 12 8.
