Definition [Monomial of max-degree 1]. Given n variables x 1 , . . . , x n , a multivariate monomial of max-degree 1 is an expression of the form: r ( x 1 e 1 ⋅ x 2 e 2 ⋅ ⋯ ⋅ x n e n ), where r ∈ Q and all exponents e i are either 0 or 1.For example 2 ( x 1 x 2 x 5 ) is a monomial of max-degree 1, but 3 x 1 2 is not.Definition [Polynomial of max-degree 1]. A polynomial of max-degree 1 is a sum f = m 1 + … m k of multivariate monomials of max-degree 1.For example: 2 x 1 x 2 + 3 x 1 x 3 is a Polynomial of max-degree 1.Definition [System of Polynomial inequalities of max-degree 1]. A system of polynomial inequalities is a finite conjunction of inequalities of the form f = 0 or f = 0 or f ≤ 0.I have came across this notion recently, and I am not at all an expert. I have the following questionQUESTION Can a system of polynomial inequalities of max-degree 1 have a solution in the reals R but none in rationals Q? Any example?

The system      {                                        x            1                    −                      x            2                    =          0                                                  x            1                                x            2                    −          2          =          0                        has solution set  {  (      2    ,      2    )  ,    (  −      2    ,  −      2    )  }so the system has real solution pairs   (      x    1    ,      x    2    ), but no rational solution pairs.
