Question 26818: I am sorry to be taking your time but could you please help me out on this...
in my book it wants me to "sketch the graph of this inequality"-
3X-Y is greater than or equal to 5


Thank you for your time.

There are different way to solve this, one way we will use is choosing values for x and solving the equation for y.
x=1





first point (1,-2)
x=2





point 2;
(2,1)
x=-1





3rd point;
(-1,-8)
since it is less than or equal to; you need to connect the points with a solid line and shade the whole are to the left of the line.

Hope you understand
=)
