Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope of a line represents the rate of change of the y-value with respect to the x-value. It indicates how steep the line is.

Front

What is an inequality?

Back

An inequality is a mathematical statement that compares two expressions and shows that one is greater than, less than, or not equal to the other.

Front

How do you graph a linear inequality?

Back

To graph a linear inequality, first graph the corresponding linear equation as a dashed or solid line, then shade the region that satisfies the inequality.

Front

What does a dashed line indicate in graphing inequalities?

Back

A dashed line indicates that the points on the line are not included in the solution set of the inequality.

Front

What does a solid line indicate in graphing inequalities?

Back

A solid line indicates that the points on the line are included in the solution set of the inequality.
