Activity Title : Linear Inequalities in Two Variables
Learning Competency: Illustrates linear inequalities in two variables (M8AL-IIa-1)
Learning Target :1) Define linear inequalities in two variables.
2) Determine whether the given ordered pair is a solution of the given inequality.
Reference : Mathematics Learner’s Module; page 222
A linear inequality in two variables is an inequality that can be written in one of the following forms:
Ax + By < C Ax + By ≤ C
Ax + By > C Ax + By ≥ C
where A, B, and C are real numbers and A and B are both not equal to zero.
Examples:
1. 4x – y > 1 3. 8x – 3y ≥ 14
2. x + 5y ≤ 9 4. 2y > x – 5
The solution of a linear inequality in two variables like Ax + By > C is an ordered pair (x, y) that
produces a true statement when the values of x and y are substituted into the inequality.

Activity Title : Graph of Linear Inequalities in Two Variables (Part 1)
Learning Competency: Graphs linear inequalities in two variables (M8AL-IIa-3)
Learning Target : Illustrate and graphs the linear inequalities in two variables on the coordinate plane.
Reference : Mathematics Learner’s Module; page 222
2. Graph the resulting equation with a solid line if the original inequality contains ≤ or ≥ symbol. The solid line
indicates that all points on the line are part of the solution of the inequality. If the inequality contains > or <
symbol, use a dash or a broken line which indicates that the coordinates of all points on the line are not part
of the solution set of the inequality.
3. Choose three points in one of the half- planes that are not on the line. Substitute the coordinates of these
points into the inequality. If the coordinates of these points satisfy the inequality or make the inequality true,
shade the half-plane or the region on one side of the plane divider where these points lie. Otherwise, other
side of the plane divider will be shaded.
Example:
Graph the inequality y ≥ -x + 1
Solution:
y = -x + 1
let x = 0
y=0+1
y=1 , (0, 1)
let y = 0
0 = -x + 1

Illustrative Example
Suppose you are working in a fast food company. You earn Php 40 per hour. Your earnings are
related to the number of hours of work.
Questions:
1. How much will you earn if you work 4 hours a day? How about 5 hours? 6 hours?
7 hours? Or 8 hours?
2. Express each in an ordered pair.
3. Based on your answer in item 2, what is the domain? What is the range?
Solutions:
1. The earning depends on the number of hours worked. An amount of Php 160 is earned for
working 4 hours a day, Php 200 for 5 hours, Php 240 for 6 hours, Php 280 for 7 hours and Php
320 in 8 hours.
2. (4, 160), (5, 200), (6, 240), (7, 280), and (8, 320)
3. The domain of the relation is {4, 5, 6, 7, 8}. The range of the relation is {160, 200,

Samples 1 and 3 are functions while sample 2 is a mere relation because domain -3 is repeated.
To define a function in a given real life situation, we will consider the one –to –one correspondence,
many-to-one, and one –to – many relationships. One – to-one and many –to-one are examples of a
function while one- to- many is an example of relation.
Examples: The relationships indicated in the family tree may also be represented by arrow diagrams as shown
below:
One – to- Many Correspondence Many- to- One Correspondence One - to- One Correspondence

Jocelyn, and Cathy. This the children of Mary. This one-to- one relation which
illustrates one-to-many which is shows a many-to-one
a relation. relation. shows a function.
Similarly, if x = -1, then y = 7, and so on. Thus, we can have a set of ordered pairs
{…, (-2, 10), (-1, 7), (0, 4), (1, 1), (2, -2),...}. Besides, a rule is a function if it can be written in y = f(x).
Example 2
Tell whether the rule 3x + y = 4 a function or not.
Solutions
3x + y = 4
3x + y + (-3x) = 4 + (-3x) Why?
y = -3x + 4 Why?
The rule above is a function since it can be written in y = f(x); that is, y = -3x + 4.
Note that all functions are relations but some relations are not functions.

Variables may be dependent or independent. Dependent variable depends on the independent variable
while independent variable controls the dependent variable.
In an equation where y is expressed in terms of x, the variable x is considered the independent variable
because any value could be assigned to it. However, the variable y is the dependent variable because its value
depends on the value of x.

The domain of the function is the set of all permissible values of x that give real values for y.
Similarly, the range of the function is the set of permissible values for y or f(x) that give the values of x real
numbers.
Illustrative Examples
A. Find the domain and the range of each graph below.
a.) b.)
Solutions:
In (a), arrow heads indicate that the graph of the function extends in both directions. It extends to the left and
right without bound; thus, the domain D of the function is the set of real numbers. Similarly, it extends
upward and downward without bound; thus, the range R of function is the set of all real numbers. In symbols,
D = {x|x ∈ ℜ}, R = {y|y ∈ ℜ}
In (b), arrow heads indicate that the graph of the function is extended to the left and right without bound, and
downward, but not upward, without bound. Thus, the domain of the function is the set of real numbers, while
the range is any real number less than or equal to 0. That is,
D = {x|x ∈ ℜ}, R = {y|y ≤ 0}
2. f(x) = √ x−2
In f(x) = √ x−2, the domain of the function is the set of values of x that will not make √ x−2an
imaginary number . Examples of these values of x are 2, 2.1, 3, 3.74, 4, 5 and so on. However, x = 1 cannot be
because it can give the value of the function
√ 1−2 = √−1
Which is an imaginary number where the calculator yields an Error or a Math Error. The Numbers between 1
and 2 neither work. Thus, the domain of the function is x is greater than or equal to 2, or
{x|x ≥2}. To get a real number number, the radicand must be greater than or equal to 0. That is, x – 2 ≥ 0
which gives x ≥2 if simplified.
Note:
The value of the function will not be a real number if it is an imaginary number or undefined.

A function is linear if and only if its equation can be written in the form y = mx + b or f(x) = mx + b,
where m and b are real numbers.
It is also defined as a function of first degree or the highest exponent of the variable x is 1.
Its graph is a line with slope m and y-intercept b. If m ≠0, then the degree of the function is 1.
If m = 0 and b ≠0, then the degree of the function is 0.
If m = 0 and b = 0, then the degree of the function is not defined.
Illustrative Example 1
Is the function f defined by f(x) = 2x + 3 a linear function?
If yes, determine the slope m and the y-intercept b.
Solution:
Yes, the function f defined by f(x) = 2x + 3 is a linear function since the highest exponent (degree) of x is one
and it is written in the form f(x) = mx + b. The slope m is 2 while the y-intercept b is 3.
Illustrative Example 2
Is the function h defined by h(x) = x2 + 5x + 4 a linear function?
Solution:
The function h is not a linear function because its degree (the highest exponent of x) is 2, not 1.
Exercises:
Determine whether each is a linear function or not. Check Yes if it is a linear function and No if it is not. Write
the degree of the function. For linear functions, identify its slope m and y-intercept b.

Determine the values of the function f if f(x) = 2x – 1 at x = -3 and 2. Give their meanings and ordered pairs.
Solution:
If x = -3, then f(x) = 2x – 1 becomes
f(-3) = 2(-3) – 1
f(-3) = -6 – 1
f(-3) = -7, which means the value of f at x = -3 is -7.
Or, if x = -3, then y = -7.
This gives the ordered pair (-3, -7). Recall that an ordered pair can be written (x, y).

Linear Equations
Aside from the sets of ordered pairs and the graph, a linear function f defined by f(x) = mx + b can also
be represented by its equation where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Illustrative Example:
Question 1:
Does the equation 3x + 2y = 6 describe a linear function?
If yes, determine the slope and the y-intercept.
Solution:
The equation 3x + 2y = 6 can be solved for y:
3x + 2y = 6 Given
3x + 2y + (-3x) = 6 + (-3x) Addition Property of Equality
2y = -3x + 6 Simplification
½ (2y) = ½ (-3x + 6) Multiplication Property of Equality
y = -32x + 3 Simplification
The function f(x) = -32x + 3 or y = -32x + 3 can be expressed in the form 3x + 2y = 6 with slope m = -32 while
the y-intercept b = 3.
Question 2:
Does the equation x2 + y = 6 describe a linear function?
Solution:
No, because the degree is 2.
EXERCISES:
Determine whether the equation is a linear function. If yes, determine the slope and the y – intercept.
1.) y = 2x + 1
2.) 5x – 2y + 6 = 0

An if-then statement or a conditional statement is composed of two clauses: the if- clause and the
then- clause. We can denote a letter for each clause, p for the if- clause and q for the then-clause. The
statement is in the form “If p then q.” Conditional statements are formed by joining two statements
and q using the words if and then. The p statement is called the hypothesis and the q statement is the
conclusion.
This is noted as
A simple flow of reasoning from the if-clause to the then-clause is called simple implication.
Example:
1.) If you get good grades, then you will get into a good college.
The part after the "if": you get good grades - is called a hypothesis and the part after the "then" - you
will get into a good college - is called a conclusion.

In proving theorems, the properties of equality and congruence are the bases for reasoning.
Properties of Equality
Addition Property of Equality (APE)
For all real numbers a, b, c and d, if a = b and c = d, then a + c = b + d
Subtraction Property of Equality (SPE)
If a = b and c = d, then a – c = b – d.
Multiplication Property of Equality (MPE)
If a = b, then ac = bc
Division Property of Equality (DPE)
If a = b then a/c = b/c
Substitution Property of Equality
If m∠A = 60, m∠B = 60 then m∠A = m∠B
Distributive Property
a(b + c) = ab + ac
Properties of Congruence
Reflexive Property : AB´ ≅ AB
´
Symmetric Property If ∠A ≅ ∠B then ∠B ≅ ∠A
Transitive Property If ∠A ≅ ∠B and ∠B ≅ ∠C then ∠A ≅ ∠C
Exercise:
Justify each statement by giving the Property of Equality or Property of Congruence used.
