Firm-Up
Discuss and process the preliminary activity. Stress on how inequality symbols limits the
probable values of x.
o Provide incidental teaching if necessary.
Synthesize the notations used and their corresponding meanings.
Suggested format in synthesizing:
Follow-up Activity:
o With the same triad, graph y = 2x + 2
Deepen
Distribute a copy of the instruction on how to graph a linear inequality [see attachment].
Discuss the steps shown stressing the following points:
o Verify if (0,0) test is reliable in determining the region of solution by plugging ordered
pairs to the inequality.
o Investigate why the line is broken and what argument will make it solid.
1. Rico is making a window frame that is a square at the bottom with an isosceles triangle on top.
The perimeter of the window must be no more than 15 dm. What are some possible
y y
Let x = the length of one of the two congruent sides of the isosceles triangle
y
y = the length of each side of the square;
P= x+ y
3. Write an inequality for the perimeter of the frame. (It must be not more than 15 dm.
y = __________
5. Graphing is one way of finding the solution of an inequality. Graph the boundary lines using the slope-
intercept method.
Remember that the graph of a linear inequality in two variables is half-plane. The boundary line of the
half-plane is dashed if the inequality is < or >, and solid if the inequality is ≤ or ≥.
6. Place the points A, B, C and D whose coordinates appear on the table below on its respective region.
Substitute the coordinates of each point in the inequality and complete the table.
7. In your graph, shade the region containing the point(s) that makes the inequality true. Does the
boundary line contain points that are solutions of the linear inequality? Explain.
