RF01 Students will be expected to model and solve problems that involve systems of linear inequalities in two variables.
RF01.01 Model a problem, using a system of linear inequalities in two variables.
RF01.02 Graph the boundary line between two half planes for each inequality in a system of linear inequalities, and justify the choice of solid or broken lines.
RF01.03 Determine and explain the solution region that satisfies a linear inequality, using a test point when given a boundary line.
RF01.04 Determine, graphically, the solution region for a system of linear inequalities, and verify the solution.
RF01.05 Explain, using examples, the significance of the shaded region in the graphical solution of a system of linear inequalities.
RF01.06 Solve an optimization problem, using linear programming.
Additional Resources and Activities for RF01 (Systems of Linear Inequalities, optimization and linear programming):
Kahoot Review on Linear Functions from Math 10 - 15 multiple choice questions that can be used to Access Prior Knowledge from concepts included in the Mathematics 10 Linear Functions Unit *Updated March 2025*
EECD 01 Review of Linear Systems - Several resources and activities shared by EECD to review prior knowledge and introduce key understandings for outcome RF01.
EECD 02 Linear Programming Lab - An activity shared by EECD to support students deepening their understanding of outcome RF01.
System of Equations vs System of Inequalities Same and Different - Show students a system of linear equations and a system of linear inequalities and ask them to find similarities and differences. A great warm-up routine to spark discussion.
Sweet Snacks 3-Act Task - Use two sweet snacks to discuss linear inequalities. At the end of this video, what questions would you ask? You can also see act 2 and act 3.
Systems of Linear Inequalities Polygraph Desmos Activity - This Custom Polygraph is designed to spark vocabulary-rich conversations about systems of linear inequalities. Key vocabulary that may appear in student questions includes: shade, region, above, below, overlap, solution, intersect, and parallel.
Representing Inequalities Graphically from Mathematics Assessment Project - Students work collaboratively, in pairs, on a game. One student decides on the position of a ‘target point’ on a coordinate grid and gives clues in the form of algebraic inequalities (e.g. 3y + 2x ≤ 12). The other student uses these clues to find the location of the target point. There is a strategic element to the game: what are the best clues to give, so that the target may be found quickly?
Systems of Linear Inequalities: Paleontological Dig - In this task students are asked to design four equations that would “box in” skeletons shown on a grid, as in a paleontological dig.
Linear Programming with Lego - Introduce students to linear programming with an easy to understand problem using 2 different types of Lego bricks (2x2 and 2x4). (Alternative representation available here).
Linear Programming Example Problems, The Carpenter Problem and The Carpet Problem - Two example linear programming problems in Google Slides to present to the class.
Unit 1 Cumulative Review
EECD 03 Cumulative Linear Programming Project - An activity shared by EECD to allow students to demonstrated their understanding of outcome RF01.
