Question 24834: okay hi the section iam doing is graphing linear Inequalities. and now iam doing it says "skectching graphs:sketch the graph of the inequaltiy. and i ahve to do like x+y>-8 and i really have no clue my teacher really didnt do anything to tell us.so if u could tell me the steps i would really appreciate it. thank you
Answer by elima(1433) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x+y>-8
First you need to put this in slope-intercept form;
y>-x-8
Now the y-intercept=-8
slope = -1
So you plot the point(0,-8) on the graph, then with the slope of , find your next point.
The line connecting points is going to be dotted line and then shade the area > -8.

Hope this helps you understand
=)
