1. Solve for



2. Graph the inequality as the equation, use = sign


first find two points that lie on a line:
let's and find



.......so, first point is (,

now let's and find




.......so, second point is (,
now graph it, plot a points and draw a line through:



4. Draw the line dashed because you have the inequality <

5. Pick a point on the line to use as a .
The point (,) is a good test and it is on
the line.

.......the point makes the inequality true
6. Since the point makes the inequality true,
of the line.
It should look like this:
