In which cases would the boundary line be represented by a solid line when graphing an inequality?

YoursTruly:

Take your time.

Yinshy:

see if that helps

YoursTruly:

What's that?

Yinshy:

there's this too.

Yinshy:

did any of that help???

YoursTruly:

I didn't read it. I kind of just want the question to be answered. I'm super behind.

We use inequalities when there is a range of possible answers for a situation. “I have to be there in less than 5 minutes,” “This team needs to score at least a goal to have a chance of winning,” and “To get into the city and back home again, I need at least $6.50 for train fare” are all examples of situations where a limit is specified, but a range of possibilities exist beyond that limit. That’s what we are interested in when we study inequalities—possibilities. We can explore the possibilities of an inequality using a number line. This is sufficient in simple situations, such as inequalities with just one variable. But in more complicated circumstances, like those with two variables, it’s more useful to add another dimension, and use a coordinate plane. In these cases, we use linear inequalities—inequalities that can be written in the form of a linear equation.
