Unit 3 - Systems of Equations + Inequalities Flashcards
What are the methods for solving a system?
Graphing, table, substitution, elimination
How do you solve a system with substitution?
Multiple scenarios
If 1 equation is y=….. substitute that for the y in the 2nd, then solve
If none are y=….. convert/rearrange one to be y=… then substitute and solve
If both are y=….. just solve it
How do you solve a system with elimination?
Multiply one of the equations to make either x or y equal, then subtract and solve
When solving an inequality, _______________ keep the sign the same
addition and subtraction
When solving an inequality, _______________ flip the sign
multiplication and division
What is no solution for a system?
The lines don’t intersect
What does infinite solutions mean?
The lines are on top of each other
What do you shade in an inequality?
If it is y > or y >=, shade above the line
If it is y < or y <=, shade below the line
What line do you use in an inequality?
If it is y >= or y <=, use the solid line
If it is y > or y
In an inequality system, shade the _____________
inside of the line
