Can't believe I just learned how to minimize a linear programming problem in twenty minutes...the Internet is awesome. PatrickMJT you are really on the vanguard of education, this is seriously the way of the future.

@869749856 happy i could help you out ; )

@h1t4k3 my pleasure : )

How do you find the points of intersection of the inequalities you graphed if they weren't so conveniently placed?

For instance, if two of the lines intersected at some point in the first quadrant of your coordinate plane, how would you go about determining exactly where?

[patrickJMT]

@incangold you can solve for y in both equations (if not already done) and set them equal to find the x point of intersection; then plug into either to get the y value

Thanks for posting. Seriously.

Thanks.

THnx

i think i'll do great on my test now without even using y= on my graphing calculator ! !

What do you do if you have 3 variables and 4 constraints? Do you just create 4 systems of 3 equations each to find the 4 vertices?

man thank u for posting this video because my algebra 2 teacher is throwin me off BADLY like not even explaining it thoroughly so to be able to see someone else teach it it really helps alot.!!!!!! THANK YOUUUUU ((((((:

what if the linear equation had 4 problems and u had to solve for the maximum?

Thank you so much! Finally I can do my exam :)
