Lesson Summary:

In this lesson, Julie Harland teaches how to graph linear inequalities with two variables. She demonstrates two examples and explains step-by-step how to graph the lines, determine whether to use a solid or dotted line, and how to shade the appropriate side of the line. Julie encourages viewers to practice and visit her website, yourmathgal.com, where all of her videos are organized by topic.

    This lesson goes through a couple of more problems where you have to graph an inequality with 2 variables in the coordinate plane. Each of these problems is written in standard form to begin, and then it is graphed and shaded.
