  • Draw the graph of the corresponding equality. This will divide the Cartesian plane into two parts.
  • Evaluate the inequality for the origin, O - the point (0,0). Any point will do, but O it is easy to evaluate it there.
  • It the inequality is true, then the part of the plane that contains the origin is the valid region whereas if the inequality is false, the other region is valid.

What are the critical features of an inequality?

An inequality must have a greater than sign (>) OR a less than sign (<) OR a greater than or equal to sign (≥) OR a less than or equal to sign (≤).


How can you graph an inequality?

You have to graph an inequality on a number line. For example, x>3.The number 3 on the number line gets an open circle around it, and a line is extended to all the other possible equations.There is an open circle if it is a "greater than or less than" sign, and there is a shaded circle if there is "greater than or equal to, or a less than or equal to" sign.

Is xl7.6x7.0 an inequality?

What side of the graph will the shaded part be if the inequality is greater than?

If it is y is greater than then it is above the line. If it is x is greater than then it is to the right.


What way does an inequality sign face when it is greater than or equal to?

The inequality sign opens towards the bigger number.


Is a number an expression equation or inequality?

A number is an expression. It is not an equation, or an inequality, since it doesn't have an equal sign, or an inequality (greater than, less than, etc.) sign.

When will the graph of an equation inequality be a dotted line?

The line is dotted when the inequality is a strict inequality, ie it is either "less than" (<) or "greater than" (>). If there is an equality in the inequality, ie "less than or equal to" (≤), "greater than or equal to" (≥) or "equal to" (=) then the line is drawn as a solid line.
