When graphing a linear inequality in two variables how do you know if the inequality represents the area above the line?
Take a sample point from either the top or bottom of the graph. I like to use (0,0) if it is not on the line. Substitute it into the inequality and if it is true then it represents all points on that line as true and vice versa.
What type of graph is used to compare two specific variables?
line graph
What is the graph of a linear equation in two variables?
straight line
How do you solve an inequality that has two different variables?
If this is school work, the solution is as follows: Treat the inequality as an equality and graph the relevant line (straight or curved). Set both variables equal to 0 and find out whether or not the inequality at (0,0) is true. If the inequality is false, reject (shade out) all of the plane on the side of the line that contains the origin while if it is true, reject the part of the plane beyond the line. The unshaded part is the valid (or feasible) region.
How do you graph inequalities in two variables?
to graph in equaltities in two variables, you graph the two numbers and/or variables. then you look at the sign to see if its greater than, less than, greater than or equal to, or less than or equal to and you graph the line as dashed or a solid
