6.5.3 Guided Instruction: Two-

Variable Linear Inequalities in
Standard and Point-Slope Forms

 Video

Linear inequalities in two variables can be written in

forms other than slope-intercept form.

1. The linear inequality is written in

standard form.

a. Complete the statement.

The boundary line of this inequality is

dotted
because the points on the
solid

included in
boundary line are the
excluded from

solution set.
b. Write the equation of the boundary line of
this inequality in standard form.

Free Response

c. Graph the boundary line on the coordinate

grid.

about which side of the boundary line to
shade to represent the solution set of the
inequality.

e. Select two test points, one on each side of

the boundary line. Substitute the ordered
pairs into the inequality to determine which
ordered pair is in the solution set.

f. Before testing any points, Elias made the

following conjecture about which region
would be shaded.

"I think I need to shade above the boundary

line because the inequality sign is >, which
means greater than."

Based on your work in Part E, explain

whether Elias' conjecture was correct.

Free Response

g. Shade the region on the graph that

represents the solution set.

Show your work

When graphing a linear inequality in

two variables, test points can be
selected and substituted into the
inequality to determine which region
should be shaded to represent the
solution set.
