FOM 11 T GRAPHING LINEAR INEQUALITIES & SET NOTATION - 1 1 MATH SPEAK - TO BE UNDERSTOOD AND MEMORIZED 1) INEQUALITY = a mathematical statement that contains one of these four inequalit signs: <,, >,. These inequalit signs indicate that two epressions have different values. REVIEW OF INEQUALITIES I) AN INEQUALITY IS A MATHEMATICAL STATEMENT CONTAINING ONE OF THESE FOUR SIGNS: <,, >, LOCATED BETWEEN TWO DIFFERENT EXPRESSIONS. Inequalities alwas contain one of these four signs: <,, >,, which indicates that the epression on one side of the inequalit sign is a different value, either greater (larger) than or less (smaller) than, the epression on the other side. e.g. INEQUALITY < 3 MEANING (LS = Left Side; RS = Right Side) LS < RS; or the LS epression is less (smaller) than the RS epression. > + 3 LS > RS; or the LS epression is greater (bigger) than the RS epression. LS RS; or the LS epression is equal to or less (smaller) than the RS epression. LS RS; or the LS epression is equal to or greater (bigger) than the RS epression. II) INEQUALITIES IN ONE VARIABLE A) Inequalities in one variable have onl one kind of variable. The eamples below are inequalities in one variable. Stud them carefull: NOTICE that the all have onl one kind of variable. Be sure ou understand and memorize how to recognize them: e.g. > 3 ; ; > ; w 9. ; a < 3. ; B) Since an inequalit has one side that is a greater or smaller value than the other side, it has man possible solutions that are best illustrated with a graph. Since inequalities in one variable have onl one tpe of variable, the are graphed on one AXIS, the number line. GRAPHING INEQUALITIES I) Inequalities are solved b the same process that is used to solve equations with one additional rule: WHEN AN INEQUALITY IS MULTIPLIED OR DIVIDED BY A NEGATIVE NUMBER THE INEQUALITY SIGN ( <,, >, ) IS FLIPPED AROUND: i.e. < becomes > ; becomes.

Since linear inequalities in two variables have two variables, the are graphed on a grid having two aes, an -ais and a -ais. To graph a linear inequalit in two variables, write it in slope -intercept form then graph its line on a grid. The line is called the BOUNDARY LINE. The BOUNDARY LINE divides the grid into two parts, an upper part and a lower part called PLANES. One of the planes (parts) must be shaded. There are two processes used to determine which planes of the grid must be shaded. 1) TEST PROCESS: Choose a point from the upper or lower planes of the grid. NEVER CHOOSE A TEST POINT THAT IS ON A BOUNDARY LINE. Call this point test point TP. Wherever possible choose the point (0,0) as the test point (P T ). Substitute the coordinates of the test point (TP) into the original inequalit. If the test point (TP) is true, shade the planes of the graph the test point (TP) is from. If the test point (TP) is not true, shade the planes of the graph the test point (TP) is not from. ) REASON PROCESS: If the inequalit sign is >, shade the upper (greater than) planes of the grid. If the INEQUALITY sign is <,, shade the lower (less than) planes of the grid. B) USE THIS PROCESS TO GRAPH A LINEAR INEQUALITY IN TWO VARIABLES 1: Write the inequalit in slope -intercept form. REMEMBER to flip the sign when multipling or dividing b a negative number. : Graph its BOUNDARY LINE on a grid. Label the line as an equation. 3: Shade the upper or lower plane of the grid.

FOM 11 T GRAPHING LINEAR INEQUALITIES & SET NOTATION - 1 MATH SPEAK - TO BE UNDERSTOOD AND MEMORIZED 1) SET NOTATION = A method of defining the variables, equation or inequalit and domain and or range of a relation. ) DOMAIN = the input numbers, the values of the horizontal ais that are part of the graph. 3) RANGE = the output numbers, the values of the vertical ais that are part of the graph. ) RESTRICTION = limitations to the domain (input numbers) and range (output numbers) of the given equation or inequalit. INTRODUCING SET NOTATION I) Set notation is a method of identifing the variables, equation or inequalit, and the domain and/or range used to draw a graph of a relation. Set notation is a method mathematicians use to restrict the domain (input numbers) and range (output numbers) of a given equation or inequalit. A) The two statements given below are written in set notation. Be sure ou understand and memorize what each part of set notation means. e.g. { >,!} This statement is written in set notation and means the variable in the math statement is an, the math statement is the inequalit > and the values of that are used to draw its graph are (all real numbers). Since, the inequalit does not have an restricted values. e.g. {(, ) = 3 +, I, I} This statement is written in set notation and means the variables in the math statement are and, the math statement is the equation = 3 +, the domain is I (Integers) and the range is I (Integers). Since I and I, the domain and range are restricted to positive and negative entire numbers. GRAPHING MATH STATEMENTS WRITTEN IN SET NOTATION I) REMEMBER: Set notation gives ou information ou need to set up the appropriate grid and restrict the domain and range in order to draw the graph of the relation. A) USE THESE STEPS TO DRAW THE GRAPH AN EQUATION OR INEQUALITY WRITTEN IN SET NOTATION STEP 1: Identif the variable or variables to determine which tpe of graph to draw. a) If one variable, use a single horizontal number line. b) If two variables, use a grid with horizontal and vertical aes.
