Finding an Inequality Boundary

Boundary Point: A solution(s) that makes the inequality true (equal). It could be the smallest number(s) that make it true. Or it is the largest number(s) that makes it NOT true.

EX: Find the boundary point of 2 5 1x

To find a boundary replace the inequality

symbol with an equality symbol.

2 5 1x 2 6x

3x

Solving an Inequality

In order to find the points that satisfy an inequality statement:

1. Find the boundary

2. Test every region to find which one(s) satisfies the original statement

Solution to a System of Inequalities

A solution to a System of Inequalities is the coordinate(s) that makes ALL of the inequalities true. The graph of all the points that make the system true is called the Feasible Region.
