Name ____________________________________Math G8______________ GRAPHING LINEAR INEQUALITIES IN TWO VARIABLES

10/07/2024 STEPS:

GRAPHING LINEAR INEQUALITIES IN TWO VARIABLES 1. Rewrite the inequality as an equation and solve for the intercepts
2. Plot and draw the BOUNDARY LINE: SOLID LINE (-------------) if the
OBJECTIVES
inequality is either ≥ or ≤ and BROKEN LINE ( - - - - - - ) if the inequality
1. Solve and plot linear inequalities in two variables using the intercept is > or <
method, 3. Decide which half-plane contains the solution set. Pick up a test point
2. Graph linear inequalities in two variables using Desmos graphing that is on one side of the boundary line. Use ( 0, 0 ) if possible, Replace x
application and y in the inequality with the coordinates of that point.
4. If the resulting inequality is TRUE, shade the side that contains the test
A Linear inequality in two variables can be written in one of four ( 4 ) forms: point. If the resulting inequality if FALSE, shade the other side of the
Ax + By > C greater than Ax + By ≥ C greater than or equal to boundary.

Ax + By > C less than Ax + By ≤ C less than or equal to EXAMPLE 1

Where A, B and C are real numbers, a ≠ 0 and b ≠ 0. GRAPH 2X – Y ≤ 4.

Rewrite the inequality as a solution


2x – y = 4
An ordered pair ( x, y ) is a solution of an inequality in two variables, if a TRUE
statement results when the variables in the inequality are replaced by the Solve and plot the intercepts
coordinates of the ordered pair. ( 2, 0 )
For x intercept For y intercept
2x – y = 4 2x – y = 4
2x – 0 = 4 2(0)–y=4
2x = 4 -y = 4
X = 4/2 - (-y = 4 ) ( 0, -4 )

X=2 y= -4
X intercept is 2 Y intercept is – 4

HOW TO PLOT
Plot in the Cartesian coordinate plane Pick up a test point. Use ( 0, 0 ) if
First ordered pair 2x – y ≤ 4
( 2, 0 ) 2(0)–(0)≤4
Second ordered pair 0≤4
( 0, -4 )
GRAPH 2X – Y ≤ 4.
Pick a test point to check
Pick a test point to check

( 1, 2 ) 2X – Y ≤ 4 ( 1, 2 )
2(1)–2≤4
2-2≤4
( 2, 0 )
0 ≤ 4 TRUE

( -3, -2 ) 2X – Y ≤ 4 ( -3,-2 )
2 (-3 ) – ( -2 ) ≤ 4
-6 + 2 ≤ 4
( 0, -4 )
- 4 ≤ 4 TRUE
( 3, - 6 )

( 3, - 6 ) 2X – Y ≤ 4
2(3)–2(-6)≤4
6 + 12 ≤ 4
18 ≤ 4 FALSE

Example 3 Translate: x – y > 2


Graph y > 5 Rewrite the inequality as an equation

Rewrite the inequality as an equation x- y = 2
y>5 Solve and plot the intercepts
The boundary line in not part of the solution
Solve and plot the intercept x-y =2 x–y=2 ( 2, 0 )
Y=5 y intercept is 5 x-0 = 2 0 -y = 2 ( 0, 0 )
( 0, 0 )
Pick a test point , use ( 0, 0 ) if possible x=2 -y=2

First Coordinate
( 2, 0 )
Second Coordinate
Example 4 ( 0, -2 )
Graph 4y > 3x + 12

Rewrite the inequality as an equation 0–0> 2
-3x + 4y = 12 0 > 2 FALSE
Solve and plot the intercepts
-3x + 4y = 12 -3x + 4y =12
-3x + 4 ( 0 ) = 12 -3(0)+ 4y = 12
