Radical/Square Root Function y=a
1 (x – h) + k b
y>a
1 (x – h) + k b
y ! dotted line y ≤ or y ≥ ! solid line
1 (x – h) + k b
Shade above or below boundary y > or y ≥ ! shade above boundary y < or y ≤ ! shade below boundary
The shaded region represents all (x,y) coordinates that will make the inequality a true statement.
Graph the following radical inequalities Solid or Dotted
Above or Below
y< x+3–1
Graph the following radical inequalities Solid or Dotted
Above or Below
y ≥ -2 x – 1 + 5
