Inequality Dinosaurs 2

Syllabus: Represent and interpret linear inequalities in two variables graphically

Calimero (the little, black, cartoon character with an egg shell on his head) has been taken back in time to the age of the dinosaurs! Quickly move all five of the eggs into the safety zone. Be careful to interpret the inequalities signs correctly to ensure you place the eggs out of danger. You are likely to need a -10 to 10 x and y-axes grid in front of you ready to draw on the equations of the lines for challenges “Eggs D” and “Eggs E”

Be careful, no two eggs must have their centres perfectly aligned (same x-coordinate) as this creates an electric field resulting in a sudden discharge of lightning. Your partner will have to take over the mission giving you time to recover!

Inequality Eggs A

Inequality Eggs B

Inequality Eggs C

For the below challenges: Eggs D and Eggs E, you are likely to need a -10 to 10 x and y-axes grid in front of you ready to draw on the equations of the lines given in each question to then be able to work out where exactly you CAN place the eggs in safety, before Calimero is ready to hatch!
