Question 197041: Can you help me graph this inequality?
3x - 2y < 6
First find out the boundaries of 3x-2y<6
Consider 3x-2y=6--------(1)
Use x and y intercepts,
Put x=0 in equation (1)
-2y=6
==> y=-3
So y intercept = (0,-3)
Now put y=0 in equation (1)
3x=6
==> x=2
x intercept = (2,0)
Since the inequality is <, Plot the graph by dotted line using x and y
intercepts.

substitute (0,0) in 3x-2y<6
==> 0<6 is true
So solution is the portion of the graph including (0,0)
