Question

This is a graded discussion: 100 points possible due DQ - Week 5 Describe the boundary lines for two-variable inequalities. Why are the boundary lines for two-variable inequalities with greater than and less than represented by dotted lines? Provide examples. Challenge: Imagine we have two boundary lines: one solid and one dashed. If they are not parallel, is the point where they meet included in the solution? Why or why not?

Explanation / Answer

let us take an example to understand this:
when we take x>2 it means all the values of x that are greater than 2 this is the reason that we show dotted lines when we graph this because x=2 is not included in this region.
now when x2 in that case we also have to take the value of x as 2 hence we get a solid line which means that x=2 is also a part of the region.
now when dashed and solid lines intersect then the point is not a part of the solution since the intersection point lies on the dased line which we have already clarified cannot be included in our solution
