What does a dotted line mean when graphing linear inequalities?
> or <
200

y = 2x + 4

y = 3x + 2

x + 3y = 2

-x + 2y = 3

How is graphing systems of inequalities different than graphing systems of equations? (2 things)
Sometimes they use dotted lines and you have to shade for inequalities.
300

x = 3

y = 2x + 1

(3, 7)

300

x - 2y = -10

3x - y = 0

3y - 5x = -26

-2y - 5x = -16

(4, -2)

How do you know where to shade when solving systems of inequalities?
Test a point in the equations. If it's true, shade toward the point. If false, shade away. Where the shaded regions overlap is your solution.
