Drill Explain how to graph the following line; y = 4x – 3
2
Objective SWBAT graph linear equations and linear inequalities in two variables
3
Section 6.7 “Graph Linear Inequalities” Section 6.7 “Graph Linear Inequalities” Linear Inequalities- the result of replacing the = sign the result of replacing the = sign in a linear equation with an inequality sign.
4
Linear Inequalities An example of a linear inequality in two variables is x - 3y ≤ 6. The solution of an inequality in two variables, x and y, is an ordered pair (x, y) that produces a true statement when substituted into the inequality. Which ordered pair is NOT a solution of x - 3y ≤ 6? A. (0,0) B. (6,-1) C. (10, 3) D. (-1,2) x - 3y ≤ 6 Substitute each point into the inequality. If the statement is true then it is a solution. (0) – 3(0) ≤ 6 True, therefore (0,0) is a solution.
5
The graph of an inequality in two variables is the set of points that represent all solutions of the inequality. The BOUNDARY LINE of a linear inequality divides the coordinate plane into two sections. Only one section contains the points that represent the solutions to the inequality. Graph an Inequality in Two Variables
6
Graphing Linear Inequalities Graphing Boundary Lines: –Use a dashed line for. –Use a solid line for ≤ or ≥.
7
Graph an Inequality Graph the equation STEP 1 Graph the inequality y > 4x - 3. STEP 2 Test (0,0) in the original inequality. STEP 3 Shade towards the section that contains the point (0,0), because (0,0) is a solution to the inequality.
8
Graph an Inequality Graph the equation STEP 1 Graph the inequality. Graph the inequality x + 2y ≤ 0. STEP 2 Test (1,0) in the original inequality. STEP 3 Shade toward the section that does not contain the point (1,0), because (1,0) is not a solution to the inequality.
9
Graph an Inequality Graph the equation STEP 1 Graph the inequality. Graph the inequality x + 3y ≥ -1. STEP 2 Test (1,0) in the original inequality. STEP 3 Shade toward the section that contains the point (1,0), because (1,0) is a solution to the inequality.
10
Graph an Inequality Graph the equation STEP 1 Graph the inequality. Graph the inequality y ≥ -3. STEP 2 Test (2,0) in the original inequality. Use only the y- coordinate, because the inequality does not have a x-variable. STEP 3 Shade the section that contains the point (2,0), because (2,0) is a solution to the inequality.
11
Graph an Inequality Graph the equation STEP 1 Graph the inequality x. Graph the inequality x ≤ -1. STEP 2 Test (3,0) in the original inequality. Use only the y- coordinate, because the inequality does not have a x-variable. STEP 3 Shade the section that does not contain the point (3,0), because (3,0) is not a solution to the inequality.
12
Challenge “Can You Write and Graph the Mystery Inequality???” The points (2,5) and (-3, -5) lie on the boundary line. The points (6,5) and (-2, -3) are solutions of the inequality. y ≤ 2x + 1
