Question 554543: Good Afternoon,
Can you graph the following inequality for me?
3x -2y < -6
and explain the points to me.
Hope to hear from someone soon.
Sincerely,
TH.

Answer by kkasko(46)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
3x -2y < -6
solve the inequality in terms of x
3x -2y <-3x-6
-3x
-2y<-3x-6
flip the < sign since you are dividing by a negative number.
/-2>/-2 /-2
y > 3/2x+3
I am not sure how to do a graph on this software yet however the inequality is in y=mx+b form.
so draw a y axis and an x axis. Plot the (0,3) on the y axis. go up 3 and left 2 and then go down 3 left 2 from (0,3). Connect the points and draw arrows on each end of the line. Since y is greater than 3/2x+3 the line is a broken or dashed line.
