What is a half-plane?

Short Answer

Expert verified
A half-plane is the area of the coordinate plane that gets divided by a line into two halves. It includes the line and all points on one side of the line.

Step by step solution

01

Define Half-Plane

A half-plane is defined as the area of the coordinate plane that gets divided by a line (known as the boundary line) into two halves. It comprises of the line itself and all points on one side of the line.
02

Properties of Half-Plane

There are several properties of a half-plane: 1. Each point within the half-plane is a solution to the corresponding inequality. 2. Both the half-planes are solutions if the equation of line is an 'equal to' type inequality 3. If the equation of line is a 'greater than' or 'less than' type inequality, only one of the half-planes is a solution.
03

Classification of Half-Planes

Half-planes can be classified as closed half-plane (which includes the points lying on the boundary line) or open half-plane (that does not include the points on the boundary line). It can also be categorized based on its position relative to the boundary line: right half-plane and left half-plane for vertical lines, or upper half-plane and lower half-plane for horizontal lines.

Between 1990 and 2013 , there was a drop in violent crime and a spike in the prison population in the United States. The bar graph shows the number of violent crimes per \(100,000\) people and the number of imprisonments per \(100,000\) people for six selected years from 1990 through 2013. (GRAPH CAN NOT COPY) a. Based on the information in the graph, it appears that there was a year when the number of violent crimes per \(100,000\) Americans was the same as the number of imprisonments per \(100,000\) Americans. According to the graph, between which two years did this occur? b. The data can be modeled by quadratic and linear functions. Violent erime rate \(\quad y=0.6 x^{2}-28 x+730\) Imprisonment tate \(-15 x+y=300\) In each function, \(x\) represents the number of years after 1990 and \(y\) represents the number per \(100,000\) Americans. Solve a nonlinear system to determine the year described in part (a). Round to the nearest year. How many violent crimes per \(100,000\) Americans and how many imprisonments per \(100,000\) Americans were there in that year?
