Linear Relationships and Modeling · Functions and Modeling

Linear Inequalities in Context

Modeling constraints and possibilities using inequalities to find viable solutions in complex scenarios.

Key Questions

  1. 1How does the shaded region of an inequality represent a set of infinite possibilities?
  2. 2Why does multiplying by a negative number reverse the direction of an inequality?
  3. 3How can we distinguish between a strict inequality and one that includes equality in a real world scenario?
