5. Solving quadratic inequalities
Many business profits can be modeled by quadratic functions. To ensure that the profit is above a certain level, financial planners may need to graph and solve quadratic inequalities.
A quadratic inequality in two variables can be written in one of the following forms, where a, b, and c are real numbers and a ≠ 0. Its solution set is a set of ordered pairs (x, y).

6. Solving quadratic inequalities
A quadratic inequality in two variables can be written in one of the following forms, where a, b, and c are real numbers and a ≠ 0. Its solution set is a set of ordered pairs (x, y).
y < ax2 + bx + c y > ax2 + bx + c
y ≤ ax2 + bx + c y ≥ ax2 + bx + c

8. Example#1 Graphing Quadratic Inequalities in Two Variables
Graph y ≥ 2x2 – 5x – 2 .
Step 1 Graph the boundary of the related parabola y = 2x2 – 5x – 2 with a solid curve. Its y-intercept is –2, its vertex is (1.3, –5.1), and its x-intercepts are –0.4 and 2.9.

9. Example#1 continue
Step 2 Shade above the parabola because the solution consists of y-values greater than those on the parabola for corresponding x-values.

10. Example#2
Graph each inequality.
y < –3x2 – 6x – 7

11. Example#3 Solve the inequality by using tables or graphs.
x2 + 8x + 20 ≥ 5

12. Example#4
Solve the inequality x2 – 10x + 18 ≤ –3 by using algebra.

13. Example#5
Solve the inequality by using algebra.
x2 – 6x + 10 ≥ 2

14. Example#6
Solve the inequality by using algebra.
–2x2 + 3x + 7 < 2
