Can systems of polynomial inequalities be reduced to systems of quadratic inequalities?
Firstly, any system of polynomial inequalities can be reduced to a system of quadratic inequalities by increasing the number of variables and equations (for example, by setting a square of a variable equal to a new variable).

Instead of solving the equality Ax=b, I want to solve the inequality Ax>=b. In general, how can I solve this problem with n unknowns, or when A has n columns?
When A has 1 column (or, when each equation in this system has only 1 unknown x) I can solve it easily by isolating x in each inequality and combining the inequalities to yield 1 inequality that bounds x. When choosing a satisfactory x, I simply refer to the yielded inequality.
When A has 2 columns (or, when each equations has 2 unknowns x and y), I graph the constraints and find the shaded regions, and use the appropriate equations for different x intervals (i.e., for x = 0 to x = 10 use x + y <= 50 and for x = 11 to x = 20 use 10 x +10 y <= 30). When choosing a satisfactory pair (x , y), I plug in x to the equation appropriate for the x interval, and I can choose any y value within the bounds for y.

If we consider N as a subset of the usual metric space of real numbers R, we can think in a fundamental system of neighbourhoods (FSN) of N. I need to prove that does not exist a countable FSN, and as a suggestion Dieudonne (The autor of the book Modern analysis) says: Use contradiction. If (
(
a
n
m
)
) is a doble sequence of positive numbers, the sequence
(
b
n
)
=
a
n
n
2
is such that for no integer
m
is valid the inequality
b
n
≥
a
m
n
for all the integers
n
.
How can I use this fact to prove it?

Does it hold that:
x

and that
C
is invertible if and only if the whole system is solvable?
P.S. All the numbers
x

EDIT 1: for matrices

it holds that

Subsystem of infeasible system of linear inequalities

b

A

m

I want to show that if the system is infeasible then it has a subsystem of at most rank(A)+1 inequalities such that the subsystem is also infeasible.
My is initial thought was to use Farkas Lemma on the original system and modify the certificate y to obtain y′ as a certificate for a subsystem of at most rank(A)+1 inequalities, but I am stuck from there, maybe my initial thought it wrong?

If you are looking for an inequality and graph solution for your Engineering course, the best thing you can do is have a look at various examples that provide answers to the most common questions. While the system of inequalities will follow the same pattern in most cases, your original instructions may differ a little bit, which is why it is vital to see more than one example to see every important aspect. As you seek help, these examples will make things clearer.
