Study Notes
Algebra 2 Chapter 3 Concepts
-
Bounded Region: Formed when the graph of a constraint system creates a polygonal area, indicating limits on values.
-
Constraints: Conditions placed on variables, typically represented through linear inequalities, shaping the feasible solutions.
-
Elimination Method: A technique to solve systems of equations by removing one variable through the addition or subtraction of equations, simplifying the system.
-
Feasible Region: Represents the set of possible solutions that satisfy all given constraints, shown as the intersection of constraint graphs.
-
Linear Programming: A mathematical strategy aimed at determining the optimal maximum or minimum values of a function within a specified region defined by inequalities.
-
Ordered Triple: Refers to either the coordinates (x, y, z) of a point in three-dimensional space or the solution to a system of equations involving three variables.
-
Substitution Method: A problem-solving approach for systems of equations where one equation is rearranged to express one variable in terms of another, facilitating easier solving.
-
Unbounded Region: Describes a region formed by inequalities that does not have limits, indicating that solutions may extend indefinitely.
-
Vertices: Points in the feasible region at which the linear function achieves its maximum or minimum values, crucial for optimizing linear programming problems.
