when graphing a line you simply plot the points based on the ordered pairs and connect the dots; there you have a line. An inequality graph refers to the shaded region of the coordinate plane that does not coincide with the line, hence the term, inequality.

How is graphing an inequality different from graphing a line on a coordinate plane?

Whereas the procedure for a linear equality is the same, the inequality defines all of the plane on one side (or the other) of the corresponding line.


How is graphing a linear inequality in two variables different from graphing a linear equation in two variables?

Graphing a linear equation in two variables results in a straight line, representing all the solutions that satisfy the equation, while graphing a linear inequality produces a region on one side of the line that includes all the solutions satisfying the inequality. The line itself is solid if the inequality is ≤ or ≥, indicating that points on the line are included, or dashed if the inequality is < or >, indicating that points on the line are not included. Additionally, the area shaded represents all the combinations of values that satisfy the inequality, contrasting with the single line for an equation.


How is graphing a linear inequality different than graphing a linear equation?

In an inequality, you have to shade a side of a line to see show if the possible answers are greater than or equal to it


When graphing inequalities which inequality line is solid?

The line that includes whatever variables are included in the equation.


Ask us graphing a linear inequality the first step is to replace the inequality symbol with a(n) sign.?

When graphing a linear inequality, the first step is to replace the inequality symbol with an equal sign to graph the corresponding linear equation. This creates a boundary line, which can be solid (for ≤ or ≥) or dashed (for < or >) depending on whether the points on the line are included in the solution set. After graphing the line, you then determine which side of the line represents the solution set by testing a point (usually the origin if it's not on the line) to see if it satisfies the original inequality. Finally, shade the appropriate region to indicate the solutions to the inequality.


How do you know weather to shade above or below the line when graphing an inequality on the coordinate plane?

If the inequality has a > or ≥ sign, you shade above the line. If the inequality has a < or ≤ sign, you shade below it. Obviously, just an = is an equation, not an inequality.


What is the difference between a dashed line and a solid line when graphing inequalities?

its different because they both repersent something.


How is graphing a two variable inequality similar to graphing a one variable inequality?

One variable inequality- graph the point on the number line then choose a point on the point, to the left and to the right to see what gets shaded. Two variable inequality- graph the line on grid paper then choose a point on the line, to the left and to the right to see what gets shaded.
