4. Linear Inequalities in Two Variables
3x + 2y > 4 -x + 3y < 2
-x + 4y ≥ 3 4x – y ≤ 4

5. The solutions of a linear inequality in
two variables x and y are the ordered
pairs of numbers (x, y) that satisfy
the inequality.
Given an inequality: 4x – 7 ≤ 4
check if the following points are solutions to the
given inequality.
a.(0, -1)
b.(2, 3)
c.(-1, 1)

6. Since there will be an infinite number
of points in the solution, this is best
represented by a graph.

7. Cartesian Coordinate System
A coordinate system in which the coordinates of
a point are its distances from a set of
perpendicular lines that intersect at an origin,
such as two lines in a plane or three in space.

8. Rene Descartes – the one who invented the
Cartesian Coordinate System
• It provided the first systematic link between
Euclidean geometry and algebra.
• Cartesian coordinates are the foundation of analytic
geometry, and provide enlightening geometric
interpretations for many other branches of
mathematics, such as linear algebra, complex
analysis, differential
geometry, multivariate calculus, group theory, and
more.

9. • The development of the Cartesian coordinate
system would play an intrinsic role in the
development of the calculus by Isaac
Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz.
• Many other coordinate systems have been
developed since Descartes, such as the polar
coordinates for the plane, and
the spherical and cylindrical coordinates for three-
dimensional space.

10. How to Graph a Linear Inequality
1. Replace the inequality symbol with an equal sign.
2. Draw the graph of the equation in step 1. If the original
inequality contains the symbol > or <, draw the graph
using a dashed line. If the original inequality contains the
symbol ≥ or ≤, draw the graph using a solid line.
3. Choose an arbitrary test point not on the line. The point
(0, 0) is often convenient to use. Substitute this test
point into the inequality.
4. (a) If the test point satisfies the inequality, shade the
region on the side of the line containing this point.
(b) If the test point does not satisfy the inequality, shade
the region on the side of the line not containing this
point.
