Graphing a linear inequality.

To Graph a SYSTEM OF INEQUALITIES:

1. Graph each inequality separately on the SAME axes.
2. Rearrange the inequalities so that they are in slope-intercept form (y = mx +b).
3. If the inequality is <> a dotted line will be used but if it is ≤ or ≥ a solid line is used.
4. Choose a test point to determine which side of the line needs to be shaded.
5. The solution to the system will be the area where the shadings from each inequality overlaps the others.
