|To Graph a System of  Inequalities |Graph the following  system of inequalities  |

| |[pic] |

|1.  Graph each inequality separately.  | |

|2.  The solution to the system, will be the ________ where the shadings from each inequality | |

|overlap. | |

| | |

|Use the grid below. | |

| |  Graph each inequality as if it was stated in "y=" form. |

| |  If the inequality is < or >, then dotted If the inequality is < or|

| |>, then solid |

| |  Choose a test point to determine which side of the line needs to be|

| |shaded or do it intuitively. |

|[pic] |For the test point (0,0), |

| |0 < 2(0)-3  False |

| |0 [pic](-2/3)0+2 False |

| |Since both equations were false, shading occurred on the other side |

| |of the line, not covering the point. The solution, S, is where the |

| |two shadings overlap one another. |

Day 7 Determinants and Cramer’s Rule

➢ All square matrices have a determinant. This value is used to help solve systems of equations.

If A = [pic], then the determinant is _____________.

Other ways to denote determinant: [pic] or [pic]. Notice the straight lines. Do not confuse this notation with __________(topic from last unit rhymes with ‘shmapsolute cow view’).

Examples: [pic] [pic]

[pic] [pic] [pic] [pic]

Cramer’s Rule

Let’s use this method on a specific example.

To solve 2x – 9y = 9 = (2)(3) – (-9)(6) = 6 + 54 = 60 6x + 3y = 7

x coefficients y coefficients

= (9)(3) – (-9)(7) = 27 + 63 = 90

constants y coefficients

= (2)(7) – (9)(6) = 14 – 54 = -40

x coefficients constants

So,

and the solution set is

Cramer’s Rule Practice

|6x + 2y = -44 |-1x - 5y = -57 |-5x - 9y = 34 |

What is the determinant of [pic]?

When trying to solve a system of equations using Cramer’s Rule, what do you think a determinant of zero indicates about the solution?

Day 8 Solving Systems Using Matrix Inverses (Review Multiplication)

First, determine the dimensions of the matrices.

[pic]= [pic]

2 x 2 2 x 3 Do you remember what the dimensions tell you?

Try These Matrix Multiplications (by hand)

[pic] [pic]

Inverse of a Matrix

➢ Will only work with square matrices.

➢ If matrices are inverses of each other, they must be the same size.

➢ If A and B are inverse matrices then:

AB = I and BA = I

➢ Inverse of matrix A is denoted by [pic].

Formula for Inverse

[pic] What does [pic] mean to do?

Use the formula to find the inverse.

Find the determinant first.

1.) A = [pic] 2.) B = [pic] 3.) C = [pic]

Find [pic] Find [pic] Find [pic]

The following does not have an inverse. WHY?

[pic]

Solving Systems Using Inverse Matrices (sounds scary)

[pic]

Example #1

Rewrite the equation as a MATRIX EQUATION:

[pic]

Coefficient Unknown Constant

Matrix Matrix Matrix

A • X = B

To find x and y, find [pic][pic]

So by hand, you have to find [pic]and then multiply by [pic]

[pic]=

[pic]=

SO, [pic] Which means that x = ___ and y = ___

Why does this work? Let’s solve a simple equation with inverses.

[pic] 3x = 9 (multiply by inverse instead of dividing by 3)

[pic]

[pic]

Note: [pic] which is known as the (2 x 2) ______________ matrix

Multiplying a matrix by the identify matrix is like multiplying a number by ____.

It does not change it at all!

So, [pic] and [pic]. What is the 3x3 Identity Matrix?

Example #1: Solve the system [pic] by using the inverse of the coefficient matrix.

Check:

Example #2: Solve the system [pic] by using the inverse of the coefficient matrix.

Check:

Example #3: Solve the system [pic] by using the inverse of the coefficient matrix.

Closure: Fill in the blanks to complete the steps for solving a system using matrices.

Step 1: First I need to write the equations in ______________________.

Matrix A is a __ x __ matrix made up of the variables.

Matrix B is a __ x __ matrix made up of the constants.

Step 2: Find the _________________ of matrix _____.

The first step to find this is to first find the _______________.

The next step is to multiply by __________.

The 3rd step is to make the __________.

The final step is to actually multiply.

Step 3: You now need to multiply _____ by _____. Horrrrrrray!

Day 9 Row Operations and Augmented Matrices

In practice, the most common procedure is a combination of row multiplication and row addition. Thinking back to solving two-equation linear systems by addition, you most often had to multiply one row by some number before you added it to the other row. For instance, given:

[pic]

...you would multiply the first row by 2 before adding it to the second row:

[pic]

The Goal: To alter the matrix so the first two columns represent the identity matrix and the last column contains the solutions to x and y. Like this:

[pic]

[pic]

Let’s try this one together:

3x + 2y = 0 (Be sure to get the x and y on the same side of the equation.)

y = -6x + 9

Try this one on your own:

3x + y = 15

3x – 2y = 6

Two Special Cases

Case #1 x + y = 5

3x + 3y = 7 Set up the Augmented Matrix[pic]

Multiply 3 times Row 1 [pic]

Row 2 – Row 1 replaces row 2 [pic]

The second row translates to 0 + 0 = 8 which is a contradiction.

The system is inconsistent – no solution.

Try to see what happens in special case #2.

Case #2 -4y = 1 – 6x

3x = 2y + ½

Alternative Method

Instead of trying to get the identity in the first 2 rows, look for a triangle of zeros.

[pic] is reduced to [pic]The last line indicates 4z = 4 so z =1.

Using substitution yields y = 3. Try solving for x____________________.

Graphing Calculator Example: rref (You’re gonna love it.)

The system of equations represents the costs of three fruit baskets.

a = cost of a pound of apples 2a + 2b +g + 1.05 = 6.00

b = cost of a pound of bananas 3a + 2b + 2g + 1.05 = 8.48

g = cost of a pound of grapes 4a + 3b + 2g + 1.05 = 10.46

Write the augmented matrix. Enter it into your calculator. Find the cost of a pound of each fruit.
