Lesson Opener
Graph each inequality on a
number line.
x ≥ –2  x ≤ 3
Systems of Inequalities
When you graph an inequality,
the shaded region represents
all possible solutions.
The solution to a system of
inequalities consists of the
ordered pairs that satisfy all the
inequalities of the system.
Solving a System of Inequalities
1. Graph all inequalities on the
same set of axes.
2. Find the solution set where
the shaded regions
intersect.
3. Check the result.
Example 1
3x + y > 4 x–y≤8
y > –3x + 4 y≥x–8
y-intercept: y-intercept:
(0, 4) (0, –8)
m = –3 m=1
Shade above Shade above
dashed line solid line
Example 1
3x + y > 4 x–y≤8
Example 2
Begin with the first two
inequalities.
x>0 y>0
Shade to the Shade above
right of the the dashed
dashed line line y = 0.
x = 0.
Example 2
The first two inequalities limit
our solutions to the first
quadrant.
Example 2
Now graph the third inequality.
2x – y > 1
y < 2x – 1
y-int: (0, –1)
m=2

dashed line
Systems of Inequalities
Sometimes we are given the
graph and can write the system
of inequalities which it
represents.
Begin by finding the equations
of the boundary lines.
Example 3
The orange line is horizontal.
y = –4
Since the line is solid and the
shading is above it,
y ≥ –4
Example 3
The blue line has a slope of –3
and a y-intercept of 1.
y = –3x + 1
Since the line is solid and the
shading is below it,
y ≤ –3x + 1
