Chapter 16

Solving Systems of Inequalities

IN THIS CHAPTER

Bullet Determining where the solutions lie

Bullet Starting with linear systems

Bullet Adding in polynomials and conics

Bullet Looking at some real-life applications

Systems of equations and systems of inequalities have several similarities. The biggest one is that you’re looking for common solutions — what the statements have in common. But there’s a huge difference in the number of solutions. With systems of equations, if there is a solution or solutions, you can have one or two or a few more points that the equations have in common. With systems of inequalities, the solutions can go into infinity!

Remember One advantage of knowing how to work with systems of equations (you find these in Chapters 14 and 15) is that this is the starting point for systems of inequalities. You start with a graph of the lines and curves that help designate where the solutions are lying, and then you describe where the solutions fall with respect to those helpers.
