6 – 2 Solving Inequalities by Multiplication and Division

• Method– Same as solving any equation– One IMPORTANT exception

• When multiplying or dividing both sides of the inequality by a NEGATIVE NUMBER you MUST invert (change the direction of) the inequality sign

Then check your solution.

Original inequality

Multiply each side by 3. Since we multiplied by a positive number, the inequality symbol stays the same.

Simplify.

Check To check this solution, substitute 36, a number less than 36 and a number greater than 36 into the inequality.

symbols– Types

• Intersection: only true if both parts of the inequality are true

• Union: true if any one part or all parts of the inequality are true


• Compound Inequality Graphing– Graphing Intersections

• Graph each part of the inequality and see where they overlap – that is the solution set

6 – 6 Graphing Inequalities in Two Variables• Boundaries

– A line cuts the plane into 2 regions called half planes.– The line itself is a boundary

• Graphing, the Simple Method– Graph the inequalities as if they were a line – Then decide which region (s) contain the answers– Recall

• > means above the line but does not include the line

• < means below the line but does not include the line

• So and must include the line!

Step 2 GraphSince does not include values when the boundary is not included in the solution set. The boundary should be drawn as a dashed line.

Step 3 Select a point in one of the half-planes and test it.Let’s use (0, 0).

Original inequality

false

y = 2x + 3

Answer: Since the statement is false, the half-plane containing the origin is not part of the solution. Shade the other half-plane.

y = 2x + 3

Answer: Since the statement is false, the half-plane containing the origin is not part of the solution. Shade the other half-plane.

Check Test the point in the other half-plane, for example, (–3, 1).

Original inequality

Since the statement is true, the half-plane containing (–3, 1) should be shaded. The graph of the solution is correct.

Answer:

Journalism Lee Cooper writes and edits short articles for a local newspaper. It generally takes her an hour to write an article and about a half-hour to edit an article. If Lee works up to 8 hours a day, how many articles can she write and edit in one day?Step 1 Let x equal the number of articles Lee can write.

Let y equal the number of articles that Lee can edit. Write an open sentence representing the situation.

Number of articles

she can write plus times

number of articles

she can edit is up to 8 hours.

hour

x + 8y

Step 2 Solve for y in terms of x.

Original inequality

Subtract x from each side.

Simplify.

Multiply each side by 2.

Simplify.

Step 3 Since the open sentence includes the equation,graph as a solid line. Test a point in one of the half-planes, for example, (0, 0). Shade the half-plane containing (0, 0) since is true.

Answer:

Step 4 Examine the situation.

Lee cannot work a negative number of hours. Therefore, the domain and range contain only nonnegative numbers.

Lee only wants to count articles that are completely written or completely edited. Thus, only points in the half-plane whose x- and y- coordinates are whole numbers are possible solutions.

One solution is (2, 3). This represents 2 written articles and 3 edited articles.

Food You offer to go to the local deli and pick up sandwiches for lunch. You have $30 to spend. Chicken sandwiches cost $3.00 each and tuna sandwiches are $1.50 each. How many sandwiches can you purchase for $30?

Answer:

The open sentence that represents this situation is where x is the number of chicken

sandwiches, and y is the number of tuna sandwiches. One solution is (4, 10). This means that you could purchase 4 chicken sandwiches and 10 tuna sandwiches.
