solutions (linear)
Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality:
y < 2x - 1
(-3, -2) (1, -6) (1, 3) (3, 14)
(1, -6) & (1, 3)
1 - 2t = 0
t = 1/2
x(x + 3) = 0
x = 0 or x = -3
How to read this sign ">"
Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality:
y >= -x + 4
(4, -1) (1, 3) (-8, 4) (11, 7)
(1, 3) & (11, 7)
The solution to 2x + 1 >= 3
x >= 1
General form of linear equation
ax + b = 0 (a is different from 0)
(x - 2)(x - 3) = 0
x = 2 or x = 3
How to read this sign "=<"
Less than or equal
Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality:
y<= 1/2x + 5
(-4, 1) (8, -6) (1, 6) (6, 8)
(-4, 1), (8, -6) & (6, 8)
The solution to 1 - 5x > 21
x < -4
3x + x - 12 = 0
x = 3
(x - 4)(x - 5)(x - 6) = 0
x = 4, x = 5, or x = 6.
variable
Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality:
y > 3x - 1
