I am having trouble with this test point method. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Graph the system of inequalities using the test point method.:
y < -x
Graph y = -x as a dashed line (since it is the boundary but not the solution)
----
Pick a test point that is not on the boundary.
Let's say you pick (2,3)
Check that point in the inequality:
3 < -2
That is wrong, so (2,3) is not in the solution half-plane.
The solution half-plane is on the other side of the boundary.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
y > -3
Graph the boundary y = -3
Pick (2,3) as a test point.
Check that point in the inequality:
3 > -3
That is true, so (2,3) is in the solution half-plane.
