100

What is the first step when graphing an inequality?

Graphing the line 

100

What is a system of inequalities?

Two or more inequalities graphed together.

100

What is a coordinate pair?

A point written as (x,y).

100

Shade above or below for y<4?

Below.

200

What symbol is this?     <

Less than

200

What does the line represent?

The line represents the equation on a graph

200

What is the solution to a system of inequalities?

The overlapping shaded region.

200

What is slope?

Rise over run

200

Shade above or below for y≥−2x+3?

Above.

300

What is a inequality 

a statement that compares two values or expressions, showing that they are not equal, or that one is greater than or less than another

300

Which axis goes left and right on a graph?

The x-axis.

300

What happens if there is no overlapping shaded region?

The system has no solution.

300

What is the y-intercept?

Where the line crosses the y-axis.

300

Solid or dashed line for y≤5x−1?

Solid line

400

When do you use dashed and solid lines 

If the symbol has a line under it then you use a solid line but if it has no line under it then it is dashed 

400

What happens to the graph when the inequality symbol is≥ or ≤?

You use a solid line.

400

What do you do after graphing both inequalities?

Find where the shading overlaps.

400

What does the double shaded region mean?

Any point within this area satisfies every inequality in the system simultaneously

400

Solid or dashed line for 2y>x+2?

Dashed line.

500

dashed line shade down. 

500

What does shading represent on an inequality graph?

All the solutions that make the inequality true.

500

What do you call the area where two inequalities overlap?

The double shaded region.
500

What is a boundary line?

The line separating true and false solutions.

500

What is the solution area called when two shaded regions overlap?

The intersection (or overlapping region).
