2. System of linear inequalities

3. A system of linear inequalities is made up of two or more inequalities A solution of a System of linear inequalities is an ordered pair that makes all the inequalities in the system true The graph of a system of inequalities is the set of the points that represent all of the solutions of the system Notes:

5. Graphing a System of linear inequalities What is the graph of the system? y  2x – 3 2x + y  2 Step 1: graph y  2x – 3 Step 2: graph 2x + y  2 The system’s solutions lie in the green region where the graphs overlap 1 2 3 4 12345 -2 -3 The green region represents solution of both inequalities The green region represents solution of both inequalities The yellow region represents solution of y  2x - 3 The yellow region represents solution of y  2x - 3 The blue region represents solution of 2x + y  2 The blue region represents solution of 2x + y  2 Check: (3,0) is in green region. See if (3,0) satisfies both inequalities y  2x – 3 0  2(3) – 3 0  3 2x + y  2 2(3) + 0  2 6  2

6. Writing a System of linear inequalities from a graph What system of linear inequalities is represented by graph ? Write the inequality that represents the yellow region. Then Write the inequality that represents the blue region

7. Using a System of linear inequalities You are planning what to do after school. You can spend at most 6 h daily playing basketball and doing homework. You want to spend less than 2 h playing basketball. You must spend at least 2 h on homework. What is a graph showing how you can spend your time? At most 6 h playing basketball and doing homework Less than 2 h playing basketball At least 2 h doing homework At most 6 h playing basketball and doing homework Less than 2 h playing basketball At least 2 h doing homework What do you know? What do you need? To find different ways you can spend your time To find different ways you can spend your time What do have to do? Write and graph an inequality for each restriction. Find the region where all three restrictions are met Write and graph an inequality for each restriction. Find the region where all three restrictions are met Let x = the number of hours playing basketball Write a system of inequalities Write a system of inequalities x+ y  6 At most 6 h of basketball and homework Let y = the number of hours doing homework x x 2 Less than 2 h of basketball y  2 At least 2 h of homework

You can spend at most 6 h daily playing basketball and doing homework. You want to spend less than 2 h playing basketball. You must spend at least 2 h on homework. What is a graph showing how you can spend your time? x+ y  6 x+ y  6 At most 6 h of basketball and homework x  2 x  2 Less than 2 h of basketball y  2 y  2 At least 2 h of homework Important: Because the time cannot be negative the graph makes sense only in the first quadrant. Remember: The solutions of the system are all the points in the shaded region including the points on the solid boundary lines x+ y  6 x  2 y  2 Hours of Basketball, x Hours of Homework, y After-School Activities
