Objective: Students will graph and interpret solution regions for systems of linear inequalities.

Estimated Time: 12 minutes

Standards:
HSA-REI.D.10HSF-IF.C.7

Graph each inequality and shade its solution region. The system solution set is the overlapping region.

Try it

Graph y ≥ x - 2 and y < -x + 4. Describe the feasible region.
