Algebra 12.13.0 Lesson Overview
Search for key terms or text.

In this lesson, you will learn to use graphing technology to find the solution set of a linear inequality in two variables. You will also write linear inequalities to represent the constraints in situations and then use the representations (including the graphs of the solutions) to answer questions about the situations.

When you finish this lesson, you will be able to:

  • Use graphing technology to find the solution to a two-variable inequality.
  • Connect the different representations and interpret them in terms of the situation, when given inequalities, graphs, and descriptions that represent the constraints in a situation.

Here are the activities that will help you reach those goals:

  • 2.13.1: Graphing Inequalities with Technology
  • 2.13.2: Solving Problems with Inequalities in Two Variables
    • 2.13.2: Self Check
    • 2.13.2: Additional Resources
  • 2.13.3: Matching Representations of Inequalities
    • 2.13.3: Self Check
    • 2.13.3: Additional Resources
  • 2.13.4: Solving Inequality Problems Using Tables
    • 2.13.4: Self Check
    • 2.13.4: Additional Resources
  • 2.13.5: Graphing Solutions to an Inequality

After that, you’ll practice and review.

  • 2.13.6: Practice
  • 2.13.7: Summary
