Students will learn how to graph systems of linear inequalities in two variables. Students will start by graphing systems where each inequality is a horizontal or vertical line. Students will also learn how to determine such a system from its graph. Then students will graph systems where each inequality is in slope-intercept form, point-slope form, or standard form. Again, students will also learn how to determine such systems from their graphs.
