. Students can trace the graph to see the result.
Additional Problems
Students investigate inequalities using
X-Y
graphs to compare numbers in order to create the
solution set. See the student worksheet for calculator details. Students must set appropriate
graphing windows in order to see the graphs. Graphing windows shown use
