As we continue with our learning, I would like to continue relating these topics to everyday life.  Can you think of a situation where we might want to use a system of linear inequalities?  Start with thinking about where we use inequalities (hint:  think back to our earlier discussions).  How might using systems of inequalities help us with many of the problems of today’s world?
