Question

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST, 5 STARS AND THANKS!!! When an inequality models a practical problem, why might some of the points on the graph not be solutions to the problem even though they are solutions to the inequality?

Answer 1

Answer:

An inequality often covers an infinite area. Depending on the problem, any area either below or above the function is included in the set of solutions.

For example, see the attached photo.

y < x is graphed here.

When you substitute x = 0 into the function, y will equal 0 and this point is a solution to the problem. However, if any point under this line, such as (1, 0), (-9, 0), or even (1000000000, 0), was chosen, these are still solutions to the inequality, but not the problem.
