What is a system of linear inequalities?

Back

A set of two or more linear inequalities that involve the same variables.

Front

What does the solution of a system of linear inequalities represent?

Back

The set of all points that satisfy all inequalities in the system, often represented as a shaded region on a graph.

Front

What is the substitution method in solving systems of equations?

Back

A method where one equation is solved for one variable, and that expression is substituted into the other equation.

Front

What is the elimination method in solving systems of equations?

Back

A method that involves adding or subtracting equations to eliminate one variable, making it easier to solve for the other.

Front

What does it mean if a system of equations has no solution?

Back

It means that the lines represented by the equations are parallel and never intersect.

Front

What does it mean if a system of equations has infinitely many solutions?

Back

It means that the equations represent the same line, and there are an infinite number of points that satisfy both equations.

Front

How do you graph a linear inequality?

Back

Graph the corresponding linear equation as a boundary line, then shade the region that satisfies the inequality.

Front

What is the first step in solving a system of equations using substitution?

Back

Get either variable by itself in one of the equations.

Front

What is the significance of the intersection point of two lines in a system of equations?

Back

It represents the solution to the system, where both equations are satisfied.

Front

How can you determine if a point is a solution to a system of inequalities?

Back

Substitute the point into each inequality; if it satisfies all inequalities, it is a solution.
