R3) When do you draw a boundary line solid? R4) When do you draw a boundary line dashed? R5) Which objective is the most diffi cult for you? R1) Why do you need to use a test point that is not on the boundary line when solving a linear inequality in two variables? R2) How do you represent the solution set of a system of linear inequalities in two variables? 4.5 Introduction to Functions What are your objectives for Section 4.5?
