The line must be solid if the inequality is strict (less than or greater than). It must be a dashed line if otherwise (less than or equal to, greater than or equal to).
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.
Pick a test point, (the origin is the most convenient unless the line of the inequality falls on it), and plug it into the same linear inequality. If the test point makes the inequality true, then shade that side of the line. If the test point makes the inequality false, then shade the opposite side of the line.
It depends upon the inequality. All points on the line are those which are equal, thus:If the inequality is (strictly) "less than" () then the points on the line are not included; howeverif the inequality is "less than or equals" (≤) or "greater than or equals" (≥) then the points on the line are included.
Whichever side contains all the numbers that satisfy the inequality. Generally, "greater than" points to the right side of the line or above it, and "less than" will lead to the left side or below it. But you have to be careful, and it would really help a lot if you understood the whole concept better than you presently do.
They are the same line.
Any compound inequality, in one variable, can be graphed on the number line.
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.
Basically. If the inequality's sign is < or ≤, then you shade the part under the line. If the inequality's sign is > or ≥, then you shade the part over the line.
To determine the inequality graphed on a number line, you would need to identify the points marked on the line and the direction of any arrows or shading. If the line is shaded to the left of a point (for example, -2) with an open circle, it represents the inequality ( x < -2 ). If it’s shaded to the right with a closed circle, it would indicate ( x \geq -2 ). Please provide specific details about the graph for a more precise answer.
Pick a test point, (the origin is the most convenient unless the line of the inequality falls on it), and plug it into the same linear inequality. If the test point makes the inequality true, then shade that side of the line. If the test point makes the inequality false, then shade the opposite side of the line.
Yes. Those lines are examples of when an inequality (≥ or ≤) is graphed.
To graph a two-variable linear inequality, first convert the inequality into an equation by replacing the inequality sign with an equal sign, which gives you the boundary line. Next, graph this line using a solid line for ≤ or ≥ and a dashed line for < or >. Then, determine which side of the line to shade by testing a point not on the line (usually the origin) to see if it satisfies the inequality. Finally, shade the appropriate region to represent all the solutions to the inequality.
Given an inequality, you need to decide whether you are required to shade the region in it is TRUE or FALSE. If you are given several inequalities, you would usually be required to shade the regions where they are false because shading is additive [shading + shading = shading] and you will be left with the unshaded region where all the inequalities are true.Next, select any point which is not of the line or curve for the inequality. Plug its coordinates into the inequality: it the result FALSE? If so, shade the region (relative to the line or curve) in which the point is found. If substituting the coordinates gives an inequality which is TRUE then shade the regions which is the other side of the line or curve.
Yes, graphed linear inequalities should be shaded to represent the solution set. The shading indicates all the points that satisfy the inequality. For example, if the inequality is (y > mx + b), the area above the line is shaded. If the inequality includes "less than or equal to" or "greater than or equal to," the line is typically solid; otherwise, it is dashed.
To graph the inequality ( x < 3 ), you would start by drawing a vertical dashed line at ( x = 3 ). The dashed line indicates that points on the line are not included in the solution. Next, shade the region to the left of the line, which represents all values of ( x ) that are less than 3. This shaded area shows the solution set for the inequality.
It is standard procedure to shade the area where the Inequality does NOT apply, leaving the unshaded area to show where the Inequality is valid. Choosing a simple illustration, the Inequality y > 6 would be graphically represented by a dotted line passing though y = 6 and parallel to the x-axis. The area below this line would be shaded as this represents the zone where y < 6. Note : A broken/dotted line is used to illustrate the boundary where a true Inequality applies (e.g. < or >). A solid line is used where the Inequality also includes an equals sign (e.g. ≤ less than or equal to, or ≥ greater than or equal to ).
A linear equation corresponds to a line, and a linear inequality corresponds to a region bounded by a line. Consider the equation y = x-5. This could be graphed as a line going through (0,-5), (1,-4), (2,-3), and so on. The inequality y > x-5 would be the region above that line.
