Graph the following systems. Show step by step how to find the solution to each problem and solve.
Solution
To solve the given systems of inequalities and identify their solutions graphically, here is a step-by-step explanation for each problem:
1. and
Step 1: Graph each inequality.
-
For :
- Rearrange to slope-intercept form: .
- Plot the line (solid line because it includes equality).
- Shade the region above the line (because ).
-
For :
- Rearrange to slope-intercept form: .
- Plot the line (dotted line because it excludes equality).
- Shade the region below the line (because ).
Step 2: Identify the solution.
- The solution is the region where the shaded areas of both inequalities overlap.
2. and
Step 1: Graph each inequality.
-
For :
- Rearrange to slope-intercept form: .
- Plot the line (solid line because it includes equality).
- Shade the region below the line (because ).
-
For :
- The slope-intercept form is already given as .
- Plot the line (solid line because it includes equality).
- Shade the region below the line (because ).
Step 2: Identify the solution.
- The solution is the region where the shaded areas of both inequalities overlap.
3. and
Step 1: Graph each inequality.
-
For :
- Rearrange to slope-intercept form: .
- Plot the line (dotted line because it excludes equality).
- Shade the region above the line (because ).
-
For :
- Rearrange to slope-intercept form: .
- Plot the line (solid line because it includes equality).

4. and
Step 1: Graph each inequality.
-
For :
- Rearrange to slope-intercept form: .
- Plot the line (dotted line because it excludes equality).
- Shade the region below the line (because ).
-
For :
- Rearrange to slope-intercept form: .
- Plot the line (solid line because it includes equality).
- Shade the region above the line (because ).
Step 2: Identify the solution.
- The solution is the region where the shaded areas of both inequalities overlap.
How to finalize each graph:
- Draw the boundary lines (solid or dotted as applicable).
- Shade the correct regions based on the inequalities.
- Find the intersection region of the shading to determine the solution.
