First, graph the line . Note: the equation is the same as

Graph of

Now let's pick a test point (that's not on the line), say (0,1) and plug it into the inequality

Start with the given inequality.

Plug in and

Simplify

Since the inequality is true, this means that we shade the entire region that the point (0,1) is in. So we simply shade everything above the line like this:

Graph of with the shaded region in green
