In this lesson, you will take a closer look at whether points on the boundary lines of the system’s solution region are included in the solutions. Analyzing graphs and communicating observations about them will require your attention to precision. You will also apply your insights to solve more challenging contextual problems.

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

  • Explain how to tell if a point on the boundary of the graph of the solutions to a system of inequalities is a solution.

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

  • 2.15.1: Analyzing Graphs that Represent Linear Equations and Inequalities
  • 2.15.2: Determining if Points on Boundary Lines Are Solutions to a System
    • 2.15.2: Self Check
    • 2.15.2: Additional Resources
  • 2.15.3: Solving Problems to Satisfy Multiple Constraints Simultaneously
    • 2.15.3: Self Check
    • 2.15.3: Additional Resources
  • 2.15.4: Identifying Graph Regions Included in a System’s Solution

After that, you’ll practice and review.

  • 2.15.5: Practice
  • 2.15.6: Lesson Summary
